 Check out the third page, fourth panel of the first story, "Pizen Spring Dude Ranch," and look at Donald's left hand: it's twisted around, holding the gun backwards! This is the kind of technical error a great draftsman like Barks rarely made. In other stories, Gladstone and Donald look for a lost ruby and the Duck's raise Scrooge's sunken yacht by pumping it full of Ping-Pong balls (which was recognized in the April 1965 issue of Popular Science as really workable!).
Reprints WDC&S #102-106. Hero Trading Card #15: Uncle Scrooge. Carl-Barks created Scrooge in 1947, but it was two years before McDuck acquired his trademark top hat. Originally a mean-spirited miser, he becomes sympathetic after receiving his own comic. Barks gave him a background that made his frugality seem heroic.
