In "Kite Weather," Donald dresses up like a five-year old girl. "Three Dirty Little Ducks", the second story, begins the permanent change from a three-tier to four-tier format, allowing for more text, but a little less art. One of your former publisher's all-time favorite stories, "Rival Boatmen” appears in this album. No matter how many times I reread it, I always laugh put loud. Barks liked it, too, enough to rewrite it years later. The album's most famous 10-pager, “The Mad Chemist” has Donald spouting "scientific" doubletalk that includes an unwitting reference to a then elusive chemical intermediate: carbene. This was chronicled in Chemical and Engineering News for June 16, 1969. Donald also enjoys his first ride into outer space, around the moon!
Reprints WDC&S #42-46. Hero Trading Card #3: Yellow Beak. Barks didn't create Yellow Beak but in "Donald Duck Finds Pirate Gold," the pirate parrot was Barks' very first supporting hero. The comic was based on an abandoned Disney film script.(very limited)
