I noticed the first Donald Duck book from 1935 by Whitman is missing from CPG.

after MUCH searching, it doesn't seem to be on here. But methinks the reason is the format of the book, and another 'tell' is that comics.org doesn't list it either. Online descriptions and pics note "Heavy linen-like cover stock. 16 page illustrated text story book....Text story with 1 large illustration per page." This may not be considered a proper "sequential art" comic book by CPG standards, more of a story book, and they don't list those cuz there'd be thousands more to add if they qualified. Ronbatman may pop in and give a definitive answer.
this site has pics of the interior: https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/1935-walt-disneys-donald-duck-first-1849361551
I attached a cover pic just in case, but I wouldn't count on them adding the book.

Collectible is correct, this is a picture book and not a comic book. Small but important difference.
