Isn't peculiar that humans were banned by the comics-editor but that
the Disney animations are still populated by humans together with
animals. They were never replaced by those (Rotter?)damned dogs.

I know it was Wilmer that started the story about the painting, and not
Don. I took a good look at it today. As Don said it's a mine shaft
inside the money bin. The sign over the shaft says "Mine all Mine" and
U$ is sitting on a ore cart full of gold coins. Donald is on the right
at the pony brake of a steam winch pulling him up the shaft. On the left
are the Nephews, with gold and a wheel barrow full of gems. The title is
"Rich Find at Inventory Time" this one is 250/500 and only $2200 USD framed.
The autograph set is a photo of Carl Barks signing the autograph cards,
and autograph card, and a copy of Whitman #195 Uncle $crooge, all for $285.
Anyway, Don, you have a good "trip" over the holidays!

Maybe we shouldn't have used an Italian word for an Italian phenomenon?
The 'intermezzos' are 'glueing' several stories together, so that the
entire book can be read like one big 256-page story.
Something like Van Horn's work in DD 286 (the DD 60 years issue).

I have copies of the advertisements for both this litho and the one with
the Fleece. If I remember well, this painting contains the text "mine, all
mine!" above the 'mine' door, and I think the 'mine' actually is Scrooge's
bin. The text could have been stolen from one of Don Rosa's "Life of Scrooge"
stories, where Scrooge and a bunch of people run to claim a mine:
"mineminemineminemine... mine!"

Don, it was I who asked about Egg Tooth Rock here, and before that
Stefan Dios asked us all about it in the subway on our way to dinner
one day when you were in Stockholm this year. It was the Swedish
translator of the Norwegian documentary on Barks who had asked him
about it, to get the Swedish name of the mountain if there was one.
I guess it's too late to tell here about Hag's Tooth Rock now, as that

No, what Disney does and what they compel Gladstone to do is
plain illegal. They refuse to return artwork even though the artists (or
at least ME) tell them they are buying the rights to the story and
reproductions, but not the original, physical artwork. Ownership of
private property cannot be transfered when the owner does not agree that
he's selling it. Disney will continue to have its way in this regard
since it affects, as I said, so FEW freelancers, and when only one of
which objects to it. What beat Disney in Virginia was mass public ill
will -- there's not a handful of people on Earth who care how Disney
mistreats a few freelancers, and those freelancers can't begin to afford
to sue, so Disney can get away with crime as long as it wishes. Their
attitude is "if you don't like it, QUIT!"... which seems rather unfair
when I don't even work for them, but for a totally separate corporate
entity which is only treating me like this at Disney's demand.
That new Barks painting isn't based on any old Barks story. But
with a mine being dug in the Money Bin where a vein of gold coins is
struck... that's my "Money Pit" story, isn't it? Hm. Maybe the guy's
having his revenge. I make a few hundred bucks off his ideas, he makes a
few hundred THOUSAND bucks off my ideas? C'est la guerre?
That shoddy bit of exploitation where you get a 1982 Whitman
reprint comic, framed, with a Barks autograph on a separate bit of
paper, for about $400... that was Barks' new "business manager"'s first
idea. All the years that Bruce Hamilton made Barks look classy, then
this business manager starts making him look shoddy with stuff like that
and getting himself involved in this lawsuit now... what a charmer. It's

he _is_ thought of - as the kindly Uncle to Donald and HDL,thanks to
Disney and Ducktales.

rubber, semi-bendable U$ figure I got out of the Disney Store once.
Gladstone hasn't put out any regular issues of their comic books in two

comics to a pack for about $5.35. Does anyone have any idea which issues
are on the inside of these packs? They show to covers of two, but never
mention what issues are on the inside. They all appear to be from
Disney's days of producing comics.
And whatever did happen to Bob Foster?

Finally, being the letterhack that I am, I'd be more than happy to write
a letter to Gladstone about this group. Per, I'll take into account what
you said about only using the "-request" address. What else do you have
to do? Just leave the subject heading blank and let the message be
"subscribe [your name here]", right? Also, which comic should I address
it to? There's a paradox here - I would think that U$ would have the
widest audience, but its letters column is fairly packed these days,

I have been thinking of this kind of information. It would be included
per issue, not on each story in the issue. This means programs like
'grep' wouldn't work for the question "which stories by CB were published
in 1986?". A bit more complicated programming is needed here, to ask the
question in two steps: "which issues were published in 1986 and which stories
by CB were in them?".
If I have the time, I will include the possibility in a next version
of the database programs.

There is a 1-page gag drawn by Strobl where Scrooge can't remember an old
school friend. But when he gets a bank note, he says "I've had this note before".
Scrooge's explanation: "My memory of faces is bad, but I'll never forget the
serial number of a banknote!"
I know, Strobl is not canon, and it's just a gag, but it might "explain" that
Scrooge does not (or only vaguely) remember Glomgold.

I think the situation related to selling the art is more of a copyright
issue since Disney owns the copyright on the various Disney characters.
Anytime a Disney character is represented, they want their $$ for using
that character in art, advertising, or whatever. Even Tatoos, as one
fellow is finding out who has covered his body with Disney characters.
Any Disney character used for anything, Disney wants their say in the matter.

Of course that is not the way it is with Disney...

That should be considered as a part of his salary.

Everything is negotiable. If a publisher wants to buy the original art
in addition to the reproduction rights, all the publisher has to do is
come to terms with artist.
The problem comes when a publisher just buys reproduction rights and
wants the original art thrown in as part of the bargain, or prevents
the artist from selling the original art elsewhere.
If Don Rosa were to determine that he could get $100 a page for his
originals from collectors and Egmont offered to pay him $100 per page
on top of the fee for reproduction, Don wouldn't necessarily be against
it.
