“History of the Wheel”

In "History of the Wheel," a 1961 Four Color comic, Donald Duck’s head injury sparks a surreal journey through time, guided by the Spirit of Progress and his son, as they reveal the wheel’s pivotal role in human advancement. Written by Carl Fallberg and brought to life with dynamic art by Tony Strobl—inked by John Liggera and colored by the Western Publishing Production Shop—this imaginative tale blends education and whimsy. The cover, also by Strobl with inks by Liggera, captures the moment of Donald’s vision with striking clarity.
