In 1956, there was an Uncle Scrooge McDuck comic book story inspired by the Big Inch Land promotion. When Scrooge visits his square inch of land in Texas, a prairie dog with engine oil on its feet leads Scrooge to believe there is oil under his land. Donald Duck and his kids buy cereal boxes around the country to obtain the neighboring square inches so Scrooge can drill for the oil that wasn't there.http://the-wanderling.com/faulty_fortune.html
