Nothing

(2) K-3 Otis is cleaning up his empty shop when rich Suzie Gump asks, "What's for sale?" "Uh, nothing," replies Otis. After Suzie pays Otis three hundred dollars for an armload of nothing, a frenzy for nothing spreads through the town. Good pacing and Agee's witty, energetic illustrations make the most of the pleasingly silly, over-the-top spoof on fashion and fads.
