Only now saw this. Great interview, thanks for sharing!
"Maybe if this series [Gottfredson's Mickey Mouse] sells well, the publisher would be encouraged to print a "Best Of?¦" collection
[complete would be better!] of Taliaferro's Donald Duck comic strip. As usual, foreign countries have already done this type of collection."
- yup! I have these:

Sunday strips, german edition, but it doesn't really matter as most strips don't have dialogue at all (something Al mentions as well in that article).
Al was a genius, I'd pay big bucks for a nice Fantagraphics edition of his Donald Duck daily & sunday strips (1938-1969)...

Yes, I also have these German editions, and because there is so little writing, it dosn't matter that I can't understand German.
I also have some nice Norwegian and Swedish collections of Taliaferros dailies and sundays:
Donald Duck - God gammel årgang (mainly Sundays): http://www.minetegneserier.dk/pls/htmldb/f?p=100:11:28826795997130:::RP,11:P11_SERIE_GRUPPER_ID:1380&cs=1D72A8B1043A3A70A65C90ECF93D6878D
Donald Duck fra dag til dag (daily strips in chronological order, b&W): http://www.minetegneserier.dk/pls/htmldb/f?p=100:11:0:::RP,11:P11_SERIE_GRUPPER_ID:1379&cs=1235FE73FF6BEFB9F5253CB750694D43D
Kalle Ankas julbok (sundays in chronological order): http://coa.inducks.org/issue.php?c=se%2FKAJ+2013
It would be VERY nice with a chronological series from Fanagraphics or any other publisher, that will treat this material with the care, it deserves.

If Fantagraphics published such an edition -
I would buy it 100%.
