Toon Treasury Of Classic Childrens Comics Hardcover

This unprecedented collection of the greatest comics for children was artfully compiled by two of the best-known creators in publishing and the field of comics, Art Spiegelman and Françoise Mouly, who also contribute a funny foreword that they call 'Out of the Trash and into a Treasury.' This treasury contains humorous stories that range from a single page to eight or even twenty-two pages, each complete and self-contained. Pogo, Donald Duck and Uncle Scrooge, and Dennis the Menace are among the favorite characters who appear in these pages. The comics have been culled from the Golden Age of comic books, roughly the 1940s through the early 1960s, and feature the best examples of works by such renowned artists and writers as Carl Barks, John Stanley, Sheldon Mayer, Walt Kelly, Basil Wolverton, and George Carlson, among many, many others.
