About those Goofy stories...

I can't imagine them without, that art more or less _is_ the point with
those stories!

That's right! My closest library gives me an ISBN of 0-330-29785-6 for a
version printed in London by Pan Books in 1987. There is also a norwegian
translation available. Tell me if you want a reference, but I'd guess any
decent library has a copy of this story.

In the norwegian version (was that the one you read?) I'm quite sure the
answer is: "No, that's a Steinway & Son". I haven't read it for many years,
though, so I may be wrong...

That's one of the things that makes the Beethoven story one of the best in
the series. It's like that all the way.
