WD Comic w/Pinocchio
- The 1945 December issue of Walt Disney Comics included an ad for the Christmas release of Pinocchio. One has to assume this was the first reissue of the movie. The ad appeared in the inner page of the front cover.
To tie in with this ad and the reissue, there’s a comic story included in this issue of the comic book. Here’s the ad and the story from that magazine.
This material comes from Bill Peckmann‘s great collection. The entire year’s worth of comics are bound. It took a while to scan and clean up a bit because of the tight binding and the thickness of the collected volume.
Many thanks to Bill for the loan.

Can anyone connect a name to go with the art?
