“Model Plane Crazy”

In "Model Plane Crazy," Tom tries to quiet the chaos of Jerry and Tuffy’s rainy-day antics by handing them a model airplane kit—only to regret it when the clever mice repurpose an old alarm clock into a motor-powered flyer. With Harvey Eisenberg’s expressive art bringing every zany maneuver to life, this 1956 Dell classic captures the timeless slapstick of Tom & Jerry’s endless chase, all from a single, brilliantly mischievous idea. Cover by Harvey Eisenberg.

Bugged by Jerry and Tuffy's lively indoor activities during a rainy day, Tom gives them a model airplane kit to busy themselves with - quietly. The mice cannibalize an old alarm clock's workings and springs to build a makeshift motor for their mini-plane, and endlessly annoy Tom with their pesky aerial antics.
