Four Color #440

Dell's adaptation of Anna Sewell's beloved novel comes to vivid life in this 1952 Four Color issue, with cover art by Morris Gollub depicting a dramatic, storm-charged night scene. The magnificent black horse rears powerfully against a turbulent yellow-tinged sky, while two figures in a carriage struggle to keep control amid lightning and dark, wind-bent trees. It's a striking ten-cent window into one of literature's most enduring animal tales, rendered with real atmosphere and tension.
