Hepcat Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 Interesting that Felix was in those early New Funnies! I thought the title had featured only Walter Lantz stable characters from its very start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hepcat Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 Here's a scan of my own copy: Rocky and Bullwinkle remain two of my very favourite cartoon characters. Unfortunately for the purposes of this thread, their Dell appearances are mostly in the Four Color title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
50YrsCollctngCmcs Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 (edited) Time to dive into a couple of more Disney boxes this morning in search of some oddball non Four Color Dells. I wasn't dissappointed. First up is another flea market find in half decent shape. I remember buying this one as a kid and enjoying the stories inside. And talk about wacky crossovers; there's even a story with Goofy, Brer Fox, Brer Wolf and the Three Little Pigs! The 10/30 arrival date is timely too! The indicia repeats the multi number code on the cover. This book would likely have been a four color but wasn't issued that way.

50YrsCollctngCmcs Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 Then onto another flea market find but this one from a dealer as on the inside cover there is a penciled 25 cents price and on the front page a 50 cents mark. Rampant inflation in the flea market world of the early seventies! This is Ludwig #3; I'd forgotten he had his own series. He's backed up in stories with Donald, Huey Dewey and Louie, Scrooge, Daisy, April May and June, Gyro and even the Beagle Boys show up! Finally, the page quality of these books hold up quite well. Dell didn't chintz out on production costs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
