Collection: The Floyd Gottfredson Library
Today, everyone knows Mickey Mouse as the cheerful ambassador of all things Disney. But back in the 1930s, Mickey gained fame as a rough-and-tumble, action-adventure hero matching wits with mobsters, kidnappers, and spies! And Mickey’s greatest feats of derring-do took place in his daily comic strip, written and drawn by one of the greatest cartoonists of the 20th century — Floyd Gottfredson. Fantagraphics is thrilled to collect the complete rip-roaring 25-year run of the strip in 12 deluxe volumes, plus two fabulous color Sundays editions. Featuring vibrant visual storytelling, each volume is painstakingly restored from Disney’s original negatives and proof sheets and includes a treasure trove of supplementary features: rare behind-the-scenes art, vintage publicity material, and commentary and historical essays by comics critics, Disney scholars, and fellow cartoonists!
