Four Color #965

Dell's Walt Disney's Grandma Duck's Farm Friends #965 (1959) puts the spotlight on one of Disney's most charming characters, with cover art penciled by Tony Strobl showing Grandma Duck hard at work scrubbing a lively piglet with a sudsy brush and bucket while a second little pig looks on curiously from atop a wooden crate. It's a warm, good-humored scene that captures Grandma Duck's no-nonsense farmyard spirit perfectly. Writer Vic Lockman and artist Tony Strobl bring their talents to the interior story "Getting Grandma's Goat," promising the kind of gentle, witty fun that made Dell's Disney line a staple of 1959 newsstands.
