A Mickey Mouse comic no doubt....But, this is about as trying to find a needle in a haystack....Good luck to find the exact comic book it was in!

Early Floyd Gottfredson maybe?

It looks like one of Gottfredson's Sunday strips - for a newspaper, not a comic book. It very well might be in a hardcover collection of his strips. Fantagraphics Books has been publishing collections of Mickey Mouse comic strips for a while now. Try a web search under "Fantagraphics Mickey Mouse" and see what you find. And good luck!

With the layout and the panels being what they are- 4 rows in one "block"- it's a Sunday newspaper strip by Floyd Gottfredson. They were done in color and the dailies were in black and white. Floyd only did the Sunday strips for a few years when compared to his long run of daily strips. The one you show is from December 25, 1932.
It wasn't hard to find- the date is on it and I knew it was a Sunday from the format. Just looked up the date in the two Fantagraphics collections of Sunday color strips. By the way, the books are tremendous, as are the Barks ones for Donald and Scrooge.
