“Tipping Over Easter Eggs”

In "Tipping Over Easter Eggs," young Scribbly stumbles upon a peculiar nighttime visitor at Ving Parker's house—someone stealing cigars, shedding pants, and raiding the icebox. When Scribbly wakes Ving to report the intruder, the homeowner casually reveals the culprit is his own brother. Written and illustrated by Sheldon Mayer, this 1937 Dell classic captures a moment of innocent confusion with a touch of family humor, all rendered in Mayer’s distinctive early comic style.
