Tom and Jerry #301
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Pint Sized Elephants," Tom and Jerry team up with Tuffy for a circus caper that starts with a bargain—Tom gets hired to scare off elephants, and the mice split his pay. But when the trio samples the circus snacks, the mice ditch the plan, using licorice whips as trunks to pose as tiny baby elephants protected by Gertrude. Harvey Eisenberg handles the art, inks, and cover pencils and inks, with coloring by the Western Publishing Production Shop and lettering by Rome Siemon—this 1977 35-cent comic captures a classic trio in a delightfully absurd scheme.
When Tom, Jerry, and Tuffy grow tired of their usual chase, they hatch a scheme to join a circus—Jerry and Tuffy will scare the elephant while Tom gets hired as the circus cat, splitting the pay afterward. But after sampling the circus’s sweet treats, the mice change plans, using licorice whip trunks to pose as tiny baby elephants protected by Gertrude, the gentle elephant, while the ringmaster and circus boss watch in bewildered amusement.
