Due to the relative "newness" of the character of Yosemite Sam in 1952, year of the original printing of this issue's cover for Four Color #420 (Dell 1942 series) www.comics.org/issue/173207/#568854, Sam's trademark long handlebar moustache and shaggy eyebrows were colored white, rather than their usual orange or red. The coloring of the 1952 printing is carried over to the 1965 reprinting of this cover.

It's just a small spread, podner... but I call it home! Heh, heh!
The small western town of Buckskin Flats has a problem. Every day, the town is shot up by Yosemite Sam, the last of the old-time bad men. Banker Hill offers a thousand dollars to anyone that can get Sam out of town. Bugs takes the job, and fast-talks Sam into leaving for Hollywood. But, with Sam gone, tourism has ceased, leaving Buckskin Flats on the brink of bankruptcy. Meanwhile, Sam has acclimated quite well to Hollywood life, with a house, swimming pool, and a new picture deal. Can Bugs get him to return to his old stomping (and shooting) ground?
