I rank, as I recall now, the following as the best and most enjoing to read regarding the attractiveness of the art :

1. Barks´ ducks (peak period 1948-1949) (also in the top as stories of course)

2. Gottfredson´s mice (peak period roughly around 1936-1938)

3. Al Taliaferro´s ducks (peak some years around or rather before 1940)

4. Carl von Buettner´s wolves (peak around 1945-1946) (but his Ducks One-Shot covers such as Terror of the River are rather ugly)

6. Paul Murry´s mice (peak period before 1960) (but together with the Carl Fallberg scripts the combination would rank much higher)

7. Gil Turner´s wolves (peak period before 1951)

8. Tony Strobl´s ducks (peak period before 1961) (The ranking may be benefited by the often very nice scripts in the longer stories which make the stories nearly as attractive as Murry´s mice.)

9. Bill Wrights mice (peak perod before 1952) (also more attractive as a whole in the longer stories due to good scripts and the early news paper art is very good)

Walt Kelly´s duck covers which sometimes are really good

Also the artist ( "Dan Noonan ? ") of the WDC&S 29 cover http://coa.inducks.org/issue.php?c=us/WDC++29 which is nearly Barks class.

Quote from user: Roger NorthI thought Carl Barks did Terror of the River.
Barks did the story, Buettner did the original cover (One Shots 108).

Okay Thanks for clearing that up.
