	MIKKO:
	I'd be proud to say that any Mickey story featuring Horace and
Clarabelle was mine, but "Hiccup" is not my work.  Can't wait 'til I
get home and read the story though... my Egmont subscription,
unfortunately, is in Danish, so I may not read this story the way it
should be until the new-format DD+MM gets to it (eventually).
	The only two Mickey stories I've done which have been drawn
are "Digging up Trouble" (D93497) and "The Egg Collector" (D94108).
(Many more exist, but have yet to be drawn...)  Why Egmont hasn't
printed them yet is anyone's guess.

	JACOB:
	Tony Strobl may have been the first to draw LVD for comic
books, but he wasn't created by Strobl.  He was created for the Disney
TV series "Wonderful World of Color" (now called "The Magical World of
Disney," as it has been for some years) in, I believe, 1960 or 1961.
Strobl didn't work for Disney-TV then (or ever?) so I don't believe he
could have created the character.
	Maybe Jack Hannah created LVD?  He directed many of the
duck-related episodes of that TV series.  But this is just
speculation, I don't know for sure.
	Got your package, Jacob, by the way!  Mail coming on it,
probably tomorrow!
