M-G-M's Lassie #1

In "Lassie Finds a Friend," a misadventure strands Lassie after she's thrown from a fast train, leading her to cross paths with Rocky, a young boy fleeing abuse at the Orphans' Home. With help from Lassie and a chance encounter with Ben, Rocky finds unexpected support—and a surprising offer from wealthy coffee planter Mr. Lawrence to repair his boat and work on a plantation. Written by Gaylord Du Bois and illustrated by Mo Gollub, with cover art by Morris Gollub, this 1950 Dell comic captures a heartfelt moment in Lassie’s adventures.
