Yesterday, I came across this 1954 Comics Code Authority list of standards (scroll down to the pink box)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comics_Code_Authority

I thought it was exceptionally good for teaching young people how to decide for themselves if a bit of entertainment is inappropriate for them (and, for that matter, for grown ups, too!)

Sorry - my color perception is not very good. Perhaps "Pink" was a strong word.

Here's a more precise link

AHA! It IS the vaguest of pinks! Are you a landmark person? LOL If you'd said the "1954 Code Criteria" i'd have noticed. ;)

Nope - not a landmark person at all : )
Since the section title was so similar to the title of the entire article, I feared it would be confusing.

I guess this is where ADD comes in handy, lol. I don't think I even saw the part in parenthesis. Just clicked on the link and scrolled down till I saw the list.
