In 1949, the Minneapolis Star and Tribune produced a comic book to commemorate the opening of the newspapers’ new building on Portland Ave. in Minneapolis. It has been scanned and is available online.

Of the many positions at the newspaper, women are only featured three times – interviewing Miss America, a travel writer and the food editor. All three positions were likely in the women’s pages. It is interesting to see the position of food editor in 1949 – it is unclear exactly when these positions were established on the news side.
