Walt Disney's Comics and Stories in Color by Carl Barks #11

Album #11 leads with four fabulous pages of storyboard sketches from "Fire Chief," a 1940 Donald Duck animated film Carl Barks helped write. His art clearly anticipates the 10-pager he wrote seven years later, "Fireman Donald." The second panel, page four, is famous by itself in Barks fandom. See, too, the panel where Donald exclaims, "I love a fire!” and note the recycling in Donald Duck Adventures album #4 of this sentiment in 1946's "The Firebug." Additionally, Grandma Duck, Bolivar and Daisy Duck play significant roles in other great stories.
Reprints WDC&S #82-86. Hero Trading Card #11: Gladstone Gander. Less hero at times than antagonist, Gladstone's infallible luck makes him lastingly obnoxious.
