🪵 Issue Overview:
Straight from the wild world of Walter Lantz Studios, New Funnies #260 delivers a stacked lineup of animated slapstick, starring:

• Woody Woodpecker – loud, unhinged, and hilarious

• Oswald the Lucky Rabbit – one of animation’s forgotten trailblazers

• Charlie Chicken, Hickory, Dickory & Doc, and more!

Packed with:

• Cartoon mayhem and pratfall-filled punchlines

• Clean, family-friendly humor in Golden Age storytelling style

• Mid-century American animation energy in full force

📊 Condition Notes (GD+ Estimate):

• Cover: Noticeable wear with light creases, fading, and minor tears; art still clear and presentable

• Spine: Staples intact with mild rust, slight roll

• Corners: Rounded and chipped

• Interior Pages: Cream to tan, solid structure with light staining or foxing; complete

• Bagged & boarded for safe archival storage

💀 Why This Comic Still Quacks Loud:

• Woody Woodpecker and crew were Saturday morning icons

• Part of Dell’s classic New Funnies anthology run

• 1958 issues like this are harder to find complete due to high child readership

• GD+ offers a great entry point for collectors of Golden/Silver Age humor

🧟 From the Reaper’s animated attic — where the punchlines land harder than the paper has aged.
