Anybody have a copy of Famous Funnies from the early '30s?

I'm looking for a scan of the High Gear homer strip from the Famous Funnies comic. I would love to buy the whole comic, but the only one on ebay is rather pricey.

FAMOUS FUNNIES A CARNIVAL OF COMICS EASTERN COLOR 1933 | eBay

My grandpa was growing up in this time and was named Homer. Due to his demeanor he earned the nickname High Gear that stuck with him through most of his life. Most of the family knows that the name came from a comic strip character named High Gear, but I just uncovered tonight that the strip was actually High Gear homer. I know the chances of obtaining an original are very slim, but it would be fun to at least be able to read the strip.

My grandfather passed when I was very young, and all I have are stories, it was cool when I made that connection tonight, just couldnt find one to read.
