KITTY CARSON: RUFF RIDIN' GAL SHERIFF "Hold Up at the Hospital Hoedown"

We Return to the "Present Day" of 1950...

...as city folk and country folk interact in...interesting ways...at a charity event!

This story from Harvey's Kerry Drake Detective Cases #19 (1950) seems to indicate that Sheriff Carson's rustic bailiwick, Rimrock, is just a short drive from a "big city".

It's actually not an unusual situation in the Midwest and Southwest, as I discovered when I set up my second home in Illinois.
(I'm a born and bred New Yorker, specifically, Brooklyn.
And it was a bit of culture shock to me to see farms and other rural fixtures so close to Chicago!)

KITTY CARSON: RUFF RIDIN' GAL SHERIFF "Railroad Rustler!

Though She May Have Lost a Page in Her Story's Length...

...the "Ruff Ridin' Gal Sheriff" Still Kicks Criminal Butt in an Action-Filled Tale!

Kitty handles herself well as any cowboy sheriff would in the sixth Kitty Carson tale from Harvey's Kerry Drake Detective Cases...in this case, #17 (1949), illustrated (and likely written) by Bob Powell.
Note that the series' setting seems to have altered to the Old West, with the railroad only now reaching nearby towns, local ranchers objecting to the "iron hoss", and no indication of modern technology!

"Ruff-Ridin' " indeed!

This is the third Kitty Carson tale from Harvey's Kerry Drake Detective Cases...in this case, #14 (1949), illustrated (and likely written) by Bob Powell.

KITTY CARSON: RUFF RIDIN' GAL SHERIFF "Terror of the West!"

Continuing From Western Comics Adventures...

...here's another never-reprinted tale of this (sadly) time-lost heroine! 

This is the second Kitty Carson tale, illustrated (and likely written) by Bob Powell, which ran in the back of Harvey's Kerry Drake Detective Cases, which, from issues 12-20, consisted of reprints of Drake's newspaper strips, this original strip, and a few one/two-page features.

Note that, while this is a Western, it's set in the then-present (1949), as the clothing and vehicles, including her Jeep, show.
Also, they never showed Kitty avenging her father's murder as the strip begins with her already serving as Sheriff!
