Four Color #348

Donald Duck finds himself in quite the predicament on this 1951 Dell issue, standing face-to-face with an enormous, grinning crocodile while clutching a magnifying glass and a wicker basket — apparently in full collector mode despite the very obvious dental hazard looming over him. Carl Barks brings the cover to life with his characteristic warmth and wit, capturing that perfect blend of Donald's oblivious determination and comedic peril that made these stories so endearing. Subtitled "The Crocodile Collector," this ten-cent adventure promises the kind of cheerful chaos that made Walt Disney's Donald Duck one of Dell's most beloved titles.
