In Lum & Abner #63, “Back in Partnership,” the Pine Ridge circus calamity takes a new turn as Lum and Abner—now co-owners of an entire circus, tent and all—find themselves partners again, this time in the wildest business venture yet. After lending Abner $250 to buy the tent (to house all the animals he acquired foreclosing on the circus), Lum realizes he’s now “half owner” of a menagerie featuring elephants, lions, and every barnyard critter in town. With both men liable for debts and desperate for animal feed, they hit on a scheme: admit folks to the circus in exchange for a bale of hay or a bushel of corn. As Abner struts about in the ringmaster’s coat and hat, the partners prepare to open Pine Ridge’s first “barter circus”—and try to feed their way out of trouble! It’s partnership, rural chaos, and classic Lum & Abner comedy at its peak.
