Comic Cavalcade #32

This 76-page DC anthology from 1949 packs in three fan-favorite funny-animal features — The Fox and the Crow, The Dodo and the Frog, and Nutsy Squirrel — making it a genuine all-ages treat. Rube Grossman's cover sets the cheerful tone perfectly: the Fox and the Crow are caught mid-scramble on a basketball court, a squirrel skidding across the floor, while a mouse referee blows the whistle ("Tweet Tweet!") and a packed crowd of turtles, rabbits, and other critters watches the chaos from the bleachers. It's a lively, lighthearted scene that captures exactly the kind of slapstick energy that made Comic Cavalcade such fun in its heyday.
