From the Publisher:

Today's America knows Mickey Mouse as a gentle do-gooder. But in his 1930s heyday, Mickey rose to fame as an epic hero -- a bold, adventurous scrapper battling mobsters, kidnappers, and spies! And Mickey's greatest feats of derring-do took place in his daily comic strip, crafted by one of history's greatest cartoonists -- Floyd Gottfredson.

For 25 years, Gottfredson's Mickey Mouse was a trendsetting adventure serial that led where other adventure comics would follow. But famed as Gottfredson's life's work is, it has never been comprehensively collected in English... until now!

Dive into this book and see Mickey's race to a gold mine with Pegleg Pete; Mickey's life on the lam after being framed for bank robbery; even Mickey's fight with a huge heavyweight champ. You wouldn't expect to find a mouse in the middle of such chilling thrills and spills. But he's always there!

Enjoy Mickey Mouse in unmatched quality -- remastered straight from Disney proof sheets and prized private collections. You'll also explore more than 50 pages of fascinating supplementary features -- from rare behind-the-scenes art to tributes by Warren Spector (Disney Epic Mickey) and Disney Legends award recipient Floyd Norman.

Mickey Mouse is among the world's most recognizable icons. But do you know the wild, unforgettable personality behind the icon? Start reading... you might be wearing mouse ears before you're through.

This came from the library of Burny Mattinson (1935-2023), an animator, director, producer, and story artist for Walt Disney Animation Studios, from 1953 until his death in 2023.

He was named a Disney Legend in 2008 and was the longest serving employee of The Walt Disney Company, with a career that spanned almost 70 years. His extensive library included numerous subjects and especially large collections of books on Disney, animation, and classic comic strips.
