Funny things

An American view on Europe

The panel below was made in the USA (drawn by Tony Strobl). It shows how little they know about Europe: a typical French restaurant, and French road signs (though the spelling of "Geneva" is English). But if we're in France, why that typical Dutch house on the left?

Funny things

Mirror trick

The Chip 'n' Dale story below, from 1964, was reprinted in 1994. But in the reprint, all panels on the first page are mirrored! The reason for this is unclear. They took care, though, that the panels are still in the same order.

Funny things

A nicked good idea is better than a bad new idea

Holland had its "home artists" Ed Lukacs and Carol Voges; in Denmark they had Niels Rydahl. The various countries often copied covers from each other. And apparently, it was easier to have an artist redraw the cover, in stead of ordering the original from the other country.

Below are 2 examples of redrawn covers. The originals are drawn by Rydahl.
