Porky Pig #64
In "The Wide, Wide Westerners," Porky Pig swaps his gym routine for a wild new venture, opening a weight-loss franchise in the surprisingly soft-hearted town of Stirrup Bend—where cowboys have grown too cozy with machines to care about fitness. With the locals unimpressed by his methods, Porky calls in the one man who can stir up a real ruckus: Yosemite Sam. Written by Don R. Christensen and illustrated by Phil De Lara, this 1959 Dell classic features energetic art and a perfectly timed clash of personalities, all captured in Tony Strobl’s dynamic cover.
