In the late 1940s and early '50s,"Carl Barks drew three covers for issues of Walt Disney's Comics & Stories, Donald Duck, and Uncle Scrooge that were destined to become famous and remain classics. Approximately forty years later Another Rainbow received a restricted license to print them as blown up two-foot by three-foot posters. (36" x 24") The quantity was restricted and there was never any more posters done in this series! There were two editions: the first on the normal good quality gloss paper that frame shops offer on premium lines. Secondly, however, a much smaller edition was printed by the Black Box in Chicago, who also did our company's Carl Barks lithographs. Though not in continuous-tone, these posters were printed on a very expensive, heavy weight, quality board with a fine-line screen to enhance the image. The quality of these posters is difficult to describe and impossible to reproduce faithfully in miniature representations. Perfect for framing, they make a beautiful addition to your gallery, living room, family room or bedroom! In 1988, Barks signed 500, which are now-again, while they last-being offered in a numbered, limited edition complete with a Certificate of Authenticity affixed to the reverse of each. First-come-first served!! "Steve: I got the posters yesterday. They are even more beautiful than I imagined! They will look grand on the walls of my office and (if my wife allows) our family room..." -R H., Escondido, CA "Hi Steve, I did receive the Mr. Barks Posters. I did not think that they would be so beautiful and so gorgeous. Really the pictures on web do not do justice to the posters." -S.S.,Glendale, CA |
