“Uncustomary Inspection”

In "Uncustomary Inspection," Daffy Duck takes a comically desperate turn, trading on his reputation as a trickster to pull off a scheme no one else would believe—convincing the perpetually grumpy prospector Yosemite Sam that he can "smell gold" for a fee. Written by Michael Maltese and brought to life with sharp, expressive art by Phil De Lara (both interior and cover), this 1958 Dell comic offers a classic, slapstick twist on ambition and greed, all for the low price of 10 cents.
