Hired as a short-term replacement on the fledgling Mickey Mouse daily strip in 1930, Floyd Gottfredson (1905-1986) went on to draw the feature for the next 45 years. He created the most famous Mickey tales ever told in print. He is a Disney Legend and was inducted into the Will Eisner Award Hall of Fame in 2006. David Gerstein is an animation and comics researcher, writer, and editor best known for his work with The Walt Disney Company and its licensees. His published projects include Uncle Scrooge and Donald Duck: The Don Rosa Library (Fantagraphics, 2014-2018) and Mickey Mouse: The Ultimate History (with J.B. Kaufman; Taschen, 2018). He lives in North Carolina. Gary Groth is the co-founder of The Comics Journal and Fantagraphics Books. He lives in Seattle.
Floyd Gottfredson's wily take on the character is revered by the
best cartoonists, and Fantagraphics has packaged these earliest
serial strips from the 30s in some truly handsome volumes. Take
advantage of the two volume slipcover edition for a great value and
the publisher's now signature excellence in presentation.--Paul

Over the past few months, [Fantagraphics] have been putting out
collections of Floyd Gottfredson's work on the Mickey Mouse
newspaper strip, and they're some of the best comics ever put
out.... It's incredible stuff, and when you throw in the
consistently beautiful design that Fantagraphics gives to their
projects, it's something that makes a pretty great gift.--Chris

Why are there two distinct pictures for this product? Are there, in fact, two cover designs for this box? If I buy it, how can you ensure I will get the "red/yellow" box, and not the "red/green" box? I ask because the latter would not match the other boxes I have from this same collection, which would be disappointing. - Customer question on
