>>Perhaps one or two other several-page story segments in Issues 2 and 3 may
have
been from Al Taliaferro's Silly Symphonies series.  I can't remember.
Unfortunately, I no longer have access to those 2 issues. Perhaps one of our
members who are more knowledgeable on this subject (or have a better memory)
will answer this question.

I don't have more knowledge, and I don't have a better memory... but I have
the comics, WDC&S #1-3. They are just a "vault" trip away..........
Let's see... nobody needs any info on issue #1, correct?

abbreviations are obvious)
