About this Collection

This hardcover volume collects the fourth installment of Walt Kelly's beloved Pogo comic strips as originally published by Dell Comics, featuring the whimsical adventures of Pogo Possum and his Okefenokee Swamp friends. It reprints classic material from the 1950s, showcasing Kelly's signature blend of satire, wordplay, and charming artwork that defined one of the most celebrated comic strips of the era.

In "The Portrait," Walt Kelly's beloved comic strip returns with a whimsical twist as Pogo and Rackety Coon Chile stumble upon the sheet music for "The Big Rock Candy Mountain" in Albert's trunk. Albert, inspired by the tune, sets off on a quest to find the legendary mountain, only to be swindled by Seminole Sam, who sells him a heap of garbage—claiming it's rock candy in disguise. With Walt Kelly's signature blend of satire and charm, this Hermes Press reissue captures the timeless humor and gentle absurdity of the original.
