Little Golden Book Monday #157

Today's Little Golden Book is MGM's Tom and Jerry Meet Little Quack, with story and pictures by MGM Cartoons, pictures adapted by Dom MacLaughlin and Harvey Eisenberg. Originally from 1953, my copy is a Third printing from 1971.
I love the illustrations in the book, but one in particular reminded me of someone else. I made three tweaks to the page, I changed the text, and I added a moustache and cigar. The eyebrows and stance were already there!

The Melmarx Bros! Invade ALF Comics

ALF comic with Marx BrosI picked up a big pile of 25 cent comics the other day, and in the pile was this awesome issue of ALF comics #21 from November 1989. I picked it up because I am a big ALF fan, but was even more thrilled when I got home and noticed that it had a call out on the front cover that said there was a Melmarx Bros (featuring; Chippo, Oucho and Burpo)story inside! As big of a fan of ALF as I am, I am an even bigger Marx Brothers fan. I have all thirteen Marx Brothers’ feature films on DVD (as well as video tape), and have spent countless hours laughing to the hijinx of Chico, Harpo, and Groucho (as well as Zeppo). Sit back and enjoy the story of the Marx Brothers Melmackian counterparts, the Melmarx Bros! in a Night at the I-Hopera!
