Thoughts of Baby New Year give way to thoughts of Baby Huey here on the first Cartoon Saturday of 2007.
Baby Huey ("The Baby Giant") was a giant baby duckling (of the Daffy/Donald species of walking, talking duck). Part of the Paramount/Famous line of cartoons of the 1950s, Baby Huey was the typical misfit outcast who didn't fit in with the other ducklings, but whose good heart usually won out in the end.
In addition to a run of theatrical shorts (under the "Harvey Noveltoons" brand, which featured characters from the Harvey Comics group like Casper, The Friendly Ghost) and several comic book series, Baby Huey cartoons would pop up over the following decades on various programs starring other Harvey Comics characters like Casper and Richie Rich.
The item pictured above is the first issue of Baby Huey's Harvey Comics series from 1956.
