About this Collection

This fifth volume in Gemstone's Vacation Parade series reprints a selection of classic Disney comic strips and stories from the mid-20th century, featuring beloved characters like Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, and Uncle Scrooge in lighthearted, seasonal adventures. The collection gathers material originally published in various Disney comic books and newspapers, offering a nostalgic sampler of the studio's humorous and artistic legacy from the 1940s through the 1960s.

In "Trail of the Unicorn," Donald and the nephews embark on a high-altitude adventure in the Himalayas, tasked with capturing a legendary unicorn for Uncle Scrooge’s private zoo. When Gladstone stows away on their plane, his uncanny luck turns the mission on its head—landing him the glory and reward, much to everyone’s surprise. Written by Carl Barks and Dana Coty, with art, inks, and letters by Barks, and colors by Susan Daigle-Leach, this 2008 Gemstone issue features a cover by Paul Murry, Rick Keene, and Don MacLaughlin.
