Mickey and Goofy set off on a drive to find one, stumbling upon a real gypsy camp where they discover a ball with mysterious powers… and a pair of crooks who have their own plans for it. Written by Carl Fallberg and brought to life with energetic art by Paul Murry, this 1957 adventure blends whimsy and wits, all under the iconic cover by Carl Barks.
In "Losing Face," Donald Duck takes on a summer job at Minneparken, tasked with cleaning up before the tourist season — and that includes restoring the General’s colossal head carved into the mountain. When a mishap causes parts of the statue to crumble, Donald scrambles to fix it with an avalanche of plaster, only to make things worse. Daisy Duck, Huey, Dewey, and Louie watch in disbelief as the situation spirals out of control.
Minnie Mouse is all set for the charity bazaar in her gypsy fortune teller costume—almost. With just one thing missing: a real crystal ball. Mickey and Goofy set out on a drive to find one, only to stumble upon a mysterious gypsy camp where the perfect ball lies. But when a pair of crooks catch wind of its powers, the trio finds themselves in a whirlwind of wits and wonder.
