This issue of "Bracco 3" è is dedicated to the waiting room, to serenely entertain those waiting for their turn to be examined. The writings and images contained in these pages are intended to alleviate the boredom of waiting and any worries about their ailments.
Inside the booklet the great cartoonists, caricaturists and humourists of the time are presented (in this issue comparing Robida and Giles). This is followed by anecdotes, more or less historical, a short photo chronicle on the curiosities of modern life, such as "scaccia pensieri" the incredible character of Carlo Manzoni "Il Signor Veranda" and well-known proverbs.
