This is a very good (4.0) copy of Dell's Walt Disney's Comics and Stories, published back in 1959. It features a Carl Barks ten pager where Donald 'saves' his nephews from a deep canyon (which is a remake of an earlier Barks 10 pager), the final part of Paul Murray's 'The Mysterious Fog' and Chip 'n' Dale and Scamp shorts.

Buying comics on Ebay can be a frustrating experience. I have bought overgraded comics and am determined not to do the same to my customers. Your satisfaction is important to me. Gradings are absolutely guaranteed - if the comics are not as described, I will offer a complete refund (including postage) on return of the same copy. Grading standard is the Overstreet Comic Book Grading Guide Third edition, 2006 ( http://www.gemstonepub.com/05_gradingguide.asp ) If you do not own this book and want to buy and sell on Ebay, I’d suggest you buy a copy. It remains the only publicly available industry standard. CGC do not publish their criteria, and I cannot guarantee that my assigned grades would receive the same CGC grade.I value my 100% positive feedback. My policy is to provide positive feedback to buyers as soon as payment is recieved.If you have any difficulties with a transaction, please contact me and give me a chance to sort it out.
I will be listing some other Disney comics and other items. I will happily combine postage.
The comic will be mailed bagged and secure in an Aussie Post toughbag. Postage is $2.50 flat rate within Australia for 1 or 2 comics. I will take no responsibility for items lost in the post, but have never had one go astray either. I will combine postage on wins - each additional comic after 2 will cost $1. Registration will cost another $2.70
International buyers are welcome - the comic will be sent Airmail at cost. Cost to the US will be A$6, registration extra.
