Smörbukk [Smørbukk] #1959

In "Husmorferien," Smørbukk wins a week-long vacation at Sola Strandhotell after a balloon competition, only to lose his ticket and end up stranded in a small southern Norwegian village when he’s accidentally thrown off the train. With writer Johannes Farestveit and artist Jens H. Nilssen bringing the misadventures to life, this 1959 issue captures a charming, lighthearted journey full of quiet humor and seaside charm, all rendered in Nilssen’s distinctive style—both in story and on the cover by the same hand.
