This crime prevention cartoon series for older persons stars Thelma Thwartum, her friends and neighbors, and a variety of law enforcement officials.
Abstract
Each cartoon is self-standing; together they deal with the gamut of security precautions, crime prevention attitudes, and crime reporting habits that older persons should observe to limit their vulnerability in becoming victims of crime. The set comprises 54 cartoons. Permission is given for their reproduction and dissemination by community groups involved in crime prevention activities.
