“The Better Half of Albert Angleworm”

In "The Better Half of Albert Angleworm," Uncle Wiggily puts his latest invention—a portable bed with folding sides—to the test, only to find himself on a wild nighttime adventure when he's captured by the Ragged Old Bob Cat and the Bushy Bear. Escaping in his bed, he discovers it has an unexpected knack for flight, sending him soaring through the mountains. Written by Roger Garis and illustrated by H. R. McBride, with a whimsical cover by Walt Kelly, this 1948 Four Color comic offers a delightfully absurd tale from the golden age of comic books.
