In "Mickey and the Beanstalk," a 1947 Four Color comic, famine grips Happy Valley after the Golden Harp is stolen—prompting Mickey to trade his cow for magic beans. As the beanstalk grows skyward, it drags Mickey, Goofy, and Donald’s house into the clouds, leading them to a hidden castle in the sky where they must reclaim the stolen treasure. The story unfolds with whimsical charm, illustrated by Harvey Eisenberg in pencils and inks, and features a striking cover by Don Gunn.
