notes: label: Description
content: "Ferd'nand", created in Denamrk by Henning Dahl "Mik" Mikkelsen (d. 1982), was brought to the United States and distributed by United Feature Syndicate in 1947. The strip features the title character, Ferd, along with his family, a wife and son. None of the characters speak, so the strip's gags are all done in a sort of pantomime. The strip continues to be created, although by a different artist. In this strip, Ferd and the family go camping, but hook up electricity for comfort.
