Walt Disney's Donald Duck #52

Mar 1957 · Dell · 0.10 USD
“Ten-Gallon Hat Checks”

In "Ten-Gallon Hat Checks," Donald Duck takes a surprising turn when he decides to prove a point to Huey, Dewey, and Louie by welcoming ants into his home—only to find their hospitality comes at a cost. Jack Bradbury handles the art and inks with his signature precision, while Carl Barks' iconic cover captures the chaos with his usual flair. A 10-cent comic from 1957, it's a classic slice of Duck-sized absurdity.
