Hi!
In the original scripts of "The Dream of a lifetime",
what is written on the truck on page 10 panel 5, and
what is written on the stores panels on page 17 panel 5 ?
What do these names refer to?

I knew that, and kinda assumed that most everyone else did too.
But the reason I mentioned it is because stories without the

A final reminder:
Don Rosa will be at a comic book show in Boston
on Sunday - APR. 13,2003 at the Radisson Hotel
at 200 Stuart Street. There is a parking garage.
Admission is $5 and the show runs 10am to 4pm.
Early preview is $10 if you want to get in at 8:30am.
Use the following url for more details:
http://www.monkeyhouse-entertainment.com/shows.htm
Also on this site is a coupon for $1 off the admission.
You may remember he was to appear there back in Feb,
but had to cancel due to bad weather that caused many
delays and cancellations at airports. Here's hoping there
are no problems this time and we have a good turnout of
fans to welcome Don.

Nowadays, I try to include all the information you give in Inducks.
If a story is non-Disney, I give it a "non-Disney" storycode.
One consequence is that appearing characters are not listed in
the character legend files.
It's easy to change a non-Disney item into a Disney item later on
(I only need to change the story code). In case we change our mind...
For an example index see:
http://coa.duckburg.dk/coa/c1/issue.php/0/us/DA13-02
Bottom line: please keep noting it when an item is (in your eyes)
"non-Disney"!

1st Scrooge McDuck in 1943????
Message 65 -

Been a while since I posted, but I came across something of interest today. I just got a copy of the short Spirit of '43 and in it was something I was not expecting, Scrooge McDuck. They did not give him a name at all, but there was no question as to who that character was. Now my issue is that for the 20 years that I've been buying and collecting Scrooge comics I have always known his first apperance to be in Christmas on Bear Mountain in 1947.
He appears with a kilt, Donalds shirt, a bonnet, glasses, sideburns, and a cane (he also has a thick scottish accent). He is a character (that appears out of a cloud of all things) and convinces Donald to save his money for his next tax payment. Clearly this character is what eventually evolved into Scrooge McDuck, but it is NEVER mentioned anywhere (even in The Disney Studio Story where the cartoon is mentioned and explained it makes no refferance to Scrooge).
I realize that this short is among the hardest to find, but I'm sure someone must have some information on this. Carl was still working at the studio in 1943 as far as I know (that was the same year the Mummies Ring came out), but it would have been right around the time he moved, so I do not know if he would have been involved with the short. I would like to think so since I've always thought of Scrooge as an character that was completely from the mind of Barks, but this short clearly shows that he was around before 1947 (perhaps with no name, but a scottish duck with side burns, pince-nez, a cane, and a knack for saving money is WAY too close to the visual and basic descriptions of the Scrooge Character).
If anyone can shed some light on this please post. Also if anyone wants a copy of this short (I also have Education For Death, another Disney WWII short) please email me directly. I will NOT sell them, but anyone who wants to send me a blank CD-R and some stamps can have a copy on VCD- again email me directly. They are very decent copies and looked fine on a big screen TV.
Also I'll attach a pic of my computer screen showing the character (for some reason the mpeg compresion will not let me do a normal screen capture).

Yes, it is. I've seen this before. It's mentioned in some
Dutch Donald-Duck-jubilee-book, which is not in my
posession, but I've seen it in the local library and I'll
try to look it up and post the full title. Other Dutch
DCML-members will probably be able to shed some light on
this.
As far as I can remember it, it was exactly like you say.
Some Scottish sourdough Duck turns up and tells Donald to
save his money. It was suggested in this book that this
character is clearly a forerunner of $crooge McDuck.
I'll try to find out if Carl Barks is mentioned as having
worked on this cartoon.

Hey everyone.
On duckfilm.de one can see a picture of the SPIRIT OF '43 Scrooge
prototype:
http://www.duck-film.de/bild/spirit.htm
This character's resemblance to the "Bear Mountain" Scrooge is
indeed quite strong, suggesting that it must have influenced Barks in some
preliminary way. But the SPIRIT OF '43 duck is not a "real person" in the
Duck world. He's instead a manifestation of Donald's conscience, his better
self: that's why he appears from a cloud and wears Donald's shirt. He
doesn't really exist on his own.
On the other hand, a version of the *name* McDuck appears to predate
even SPIRIT OF '43. Scotland's House of Tartan offers kilt cloth in various
registered Scottish clan tartans. One is a "MacDuck" tartan, with 1942
Disney copyright lines:
http://www.house-of-tartan.scotland.net/scottish/dir2.asp?secid=77&subsecid=
1083&srcdoc=searchclan.asp?searchstring=McDuck
Given the spelling of the name, I can only imagine it was a
publicity stunt for Donald.

This book is in Inducks as "LVWE 1" (Dutch translation),

Hi y'all!
'Gyro's First Invention' has finally been published in
Holland. Nice story! The Dutch translation is in some
aspects different from the Danish translation, but it has
some nice touches:
On the third page, first panel, Fulton Gearloose's shop
window says: 'Fluks Fiks Winkel, eig. Harry Wortel'.
Translation: 'Quickly Fix Shop, owner: Harry Gearloose'.
In Dutch, Gyro's father is named after Harry Fluks!
Also, since the story is supposed to take place in 1952,
and although this is nowhere directly implied, $crooge's
fortune is still counted in guilders and the Money Bin's
front wall still shows an 'f' instead of an Euro-symbol!
['f' stands for 'florijn' = 'gulden florijn' (golden
florin) = 'gulden' = Dutch guilder.]
'Harry' is already Fulton's third Dutch name. In Lo$ 10,
it was 'generaal Fulton', in 'Guardians of the Lost
Library', it was 'Willem Wortel'. But 'Willem' is also
Ratchet Gearloose. By the way, Harry, isn't Willem also
*your* second name? Nice coincidence!
In three panels, the Dutch editor added thought-bubbles to
Little Helper, which is a bit disturbing. Does this have
something to do with Thom Roep's 'golden rule' that *each*
panel should have text in it, otherwise readers will just
skip the panel?

The facts, to the best of my knowledge:
1) Barks was not involved in the production of Spirit of '43. This does
not exclude the possibility, of course, that he may have seen storyboard
sketches or the finished film.
2) Barks never made any reference to the cartoon when he talked about
the origins of Scrooge.
If the movie had any influence on the creation of Scrooge, it seems to
have been subconscious.

While I can't shed much light on this issue, I'd like to point out that
this is not actually a character, but a depiction of Donald's "thrifty
personality", which is why he appears out of a cloud--Donald is merely
thinking about what these characters say.
An interesting thing to note, though, is that although this Scottish
character is supposed to be the thrifty side of Donald, he does not look
like Donald, the way his spendthrift side does. Instead, he is old and
wears glasses. One can't help but wonder why.

Earthshaking questions. Well, okay, if you think anybody else here would
want to know my answers...
That's supposed to be a generic commercial truck on page 10. Knowing that
any writing I put in English on a Duckburg truck would be changed, and since
it didn't matter what sort of truck it was, I simply kinda just squiggled
some random letters on it and obscured it with motion-lines. But I see the
colorist brought out the letters he/she thought were there. In other words,
don't worry about what's written there.
Page 17 is a scene in 1977 Glasgow. The names on the storefronts are actual
businesses on Paisley St. in Glasgow in 1877. As long as I was looking at
photos of same, there was no reason not to copy over the exact names I saw.
And since this was expressly a scene in a specific city in the world
(regardless of where the translators think Duckburg is), I use the language
and words that would appear in such signs in that city... then I tell Byron
not to allow the Egmont art department to white out the lettering (which
they would otherwise automatically do in a rote manner, without seeing if it
had any meaning in the setting). Sometimes this works, sometimes it doesn't.
I guess it depends on who the rote white-outer is on a given day at the
office. Of course, it doesn't matter a whit that there is a Bolton Hat Store
in that scene, but I think it shows respect to the readers, young or old, if
the signage in Glasgow is not written in Norwegian or Swedish or something
else which would be rather bizarre. I recently did the same for the sign on
the door of the office of the International Money Council in Paris in my
"Crusader Crown" story -- I had a French friend tell me what the name of
that organization would be in French, and instructed that the French words
should be used in my script. I hope they were properly carried over by the
translators, but I have no control over that.
