Paul Terry's Mighty Mouse Comics #30
In "Hawaii Bound," Heckle and Jeckle spin a wild yarn about Dimwit's daring exploits in the tropics, all to win a prize at the Tall Story Club's whopper contest. But when Dimwit—a stickler for the truth—refuses to let the lie stand unchallenged, the prank takes a turn neither magpie expected. A 10-cent comic from 1952, this issue features a typeset letterer and a playful, tongue-in-cheek tale of tall tales and truth-tellers.
