Read this never-reprinted story from Dell's Four Color Comics: Santa Claus Funnies #1274 (1962), and judge for yourself!
Illustrated by Mel Crawford and scripted by an unknown writer, this "was it a dream or not?" tale was typical of the material in the annual Santa Claus Funnies anthology the editors at Dell inserted into the Four Color Comics schedule from 1944 to this final issue in 1962.
But this little guy was almost as popular in the 1950s, though, sadly, largely forgotten today!
To Be Continued...
Next Friday!
Written by the character's creator Charles Tazewell and illustrated by Mel Crawford, this never-reprinted tale from Dell's Four Color Comics #864 (1957) is an original tale, not an adaptation of a previously-published prose tale!
This never-reprinted book adaptation from Dell Junior Treasury #5 (1956) was scripted by Gaylord DuBois and illustrated by Mel Crawford.
Oddly, it's not listed in the Wikipedia article about various adaptations of the novel!
The Classics Illustrated Junior version (which is totally-different) is listed!
Heck, there have even been several anime versions...
