Here’s my copy of the rare Complimentary Copy of Walt Disney’s Comics and Stories<\/em> #4.  Except for the cover, this is an exact duplicate of the regular issue #4.  The Overstreet Comic Book Price Guide<\/em> states that this complimentary issue was probably mailed out to the subscribers of the cancelled Mickey Mouse Magazine<\/em>, encouraging them to subscribe to the new comic book series.  I’ll post an image of the back cover subscription form on the GAC Facebook page<\/a>.  Overstreet<\/em> lists this complimentary issue as rare and states that only 5 copies are known to exist.  I’ve only seen this copy in the wild, but I suspect that more than five copies exist.  I have not checked the CGC census, but it may show more than five.  By the way, when I purchased this copy, it had been previously slabbed by CGC, but the slab had been damaged and removed.  I still have the label from the original slab, so this is one that will be in the CGC census.<\/p>\n

Notably, this issue is the first cover appearance of Huey, Dewey and Louie, and is also the first Christmas cover in this title.  Enjoy!<\/p>\n
