Perhaps this forum has discussed this particular event
earlier, but here goes: I'm very pleased to finally see
*a Tony Strobl book*. I believe that besides Barks, Strobl
was among the best liked and most influential Disney
comics artists in the late 1950ies and throughout the
1960ies, at least for Scandinavian readers.

The book in question is Volume #15 in Egmont's very
good "Hall of Fame" series. The book has 182 pages,
and has scholarly informative introductions by Germund
von Wowern and Karl-Erik Lindkvist.  We even learn
that Strobl saved a seven-year old girl from drowning
in 1942 ...
