Indexer Notes

Art is identified by Michael Barrier as Carl Buettner. On the cover a box is labeled as "Bark's [sic] Jiffy Chicken Dinner"--a double joke, since Barks had a chicken farm at San Jacinto, California, in the 1940s. Note by Michael Barrier from "Carl Barks and the Art of the Comic Book" (M. Lilien, 1982).
