I found these same 2 books at my local Walmart today - what a nice surprise! I wasn't expecting them to be HC, and it's great that the covers are fully printed so I can do away with the dust jackets. Nice little addition to my collection :)
Edit - I went on eBay and bought 8 more issues for $6 each. Hope I can find the rest some day!

I also found "Mickey Mouse and the Knights of the Round Table" today at T.J. Maxx. Tempting as it was, I left it there. I have seen enough bad translations of mediocre Italian Disney comics already.
*edit* Apparently, I am a glutton for punishment...I picked this one up yesterday. One of the stories in the book is an American story with art by Paul Murry, that has apparently also been translated from whatever language the three-tier reformatted version of this story originated from.

Quote from user: PhantomDuckQuote from user: MorequackI'm still on the hunt for #17, "Donald's Odyssey" which is another great story that I had read as a kid in a Greek translation from the Italian. I still have the Greek version from 1968 in 2 parts: http://coa.inducks.org/issue.php?c=gr/MM+++84#b
Wow, that is a rare issue, let alone for a US citizen. How did you get it ? I have read the story from a more recent issue, but I feel like Pier Lorenzo De Vita's design destroys Martina's story. Without doubt, one of my least favorite Disney comic artists.
I was born in Greece and lived in Chania until age 10, and I had purchased it new from the periptero! I don't remember why I don't have that issue anymore as I have many of those oldies in my possession still.
