It appears, at least, into a B-coded story. To be more precise: B 870024 "O
Casamento do Pato Donald". This story was republished in France and Italy.

no more than you want to visit a margarine / skunk oil factory
These factories are places they show to presidents, kings and prime
ministers during a state visit. Little bit show off.. "Our skunk oil

The ducks can be found on an airport on multiple occasions. Although the
shape is not consistent, sometimes there are guards and sometimes only a
fence, maybe that's one item for the list?

Seems you're wrong. Everybody remembers the galleon and everybody including
me is keen to have it in the landmarks list. Same is true for Notre Duck,
which doesn't need a question mark, in my opinion. Just trust the DCML
members! I myself am also still favouring Cape Quack (as it gives its story
the title and therefore stucks in the mind) and want to add that Scrooge's
zoo is not situated in Duckburg, at least not in its origin story "Trail of
the Unicorn".

Barks' Little Joke
Message 447 -
2002-06-27 at 08:37:40
I cannot believe that not ONE member wants to comment on Barks' joke that
calisota was known as "The VAMPIRE State". I thought that fact might at least
stir up an amusing debate between serious Barksist/Donaldists and a few
jokesters regarding whether or not some "Barks Duck Universe 'facts'" should be
removed from consideration as "true" facts, or just be tossed away as invented
solely for a one-time joke effect.
I, for one, am in favour of using EVERY clue from Barks (especially those
represented BOTH by printed word AND in picture representation). In real life,
the "Empire State" (New York) had a skyscraper (Empire State Building) named
after it. Therefore: The "Vampire State Building" must represent "The VAMPIRE
State (i.e. Calisota).
This Barksian fact may also be the explanation for the hallowed history of
Count Duckula, as represented by the US publication of "Count Duckula" comic
books. They must represent a graphic account of that Grizzly period in
Duckburg's history! :-)
Also: No One thinks that that old ramshackle shack on Dreary Street (Angina
Arthritis' House) is a memorable and important landmark in Duckburg????

Understanding the joke requires that you know that New York state is
called the "empire state", so that you can make all these associations. My
guess is that this kind of obscure information is only known to Americans,
possibly only New Yorkers. Being neither, I always wandered why the
building had such a strange name.

Not really. That building was demolished in an explosion of McDuck
flour. The gingerbread house that was left standing in its place would
not have lasted long, and, if we believe Barks, it was *eaten* right away,
giving Scrooge an indigestion.
Like many people, however, I am curious to know what document
Ms. Arthritis had that could ruin Scrooge.

Well, it's situated nearby. I would say that would be

There were similar looking mountains in other Barks stories, even if they
may not have been referred to as "Old Demontooth". I'm thinking about "The
Golden Christmas Tree" and the $crooge story where he has to move the bin
around to different sites because of various projects in Duckburg.
By the way: Wasn't the JWs headquarters or something used in the 10-pager
in WDC 227 (A Tracking Frenzy)?
