Don rosa original finished pencil artfeaturing sixty-one christmases with uncle $croogethis is one of a 12 part poster series that appeared monthly throughout europe during 2007art measures 9 1/2 by 12 1/2 incheson high grade bristol boardand is signed by the artist. After the frist 11 pin-ups, don's problem was how to think up a big finish for this series commemorating the 60th anniversary of the first appearance of carl barks' uncle $crooge mcduck? In an e-mail exchange with a fan, the fan mentioned some famous barks $crooge stories that don had not yet featured in the first 11 pin-upsthis got don to thinking. The 12th pin-up would appear at christmas, the true and exact 60th anniversary of $crooge's first appearance! In fact, barks' name for his new character (in the american originals) was scrooge after the character in charles dickens' a christmas carol'ebenezer scrooge was not especially wealthy, he was just greedy and sour. Don's answer was to have the big finish pin-up spotlight $crooge mcduck as a christmas charcater created for a christmas story. And this is now his sixty-first christmas appearance! In the upper left & right corners of the page appear $crooge offering donald the bear disguise worn in that first story christmas on bear mountain(donald duck four color #178). Spanning the entire page below that is the scene of $crooge leading his parade of teh twelve days of christmas from the story the thrifty spendthrift in uncle $crooge #47.
Below the end of the parade, clockwise down the right side, is a horse poorly disguised as a reindeer, pulling the rented sled seen on the opposite side of the page - more on that later. Next is a shot from the untitled christmas story in walt disney's comics and stories #148 where donald tries to trick uncle $crooge out of a free christmas feast by disguising himself as a fellow millionaire businessman. Below that is a special entyr - this is a combined scene from the little golden book #d84 published in 1960. Barks provided the art for this illustrated children's storybook about $crooge's nephews disguising themselves as the ghosts of christmas past, present & future and causing their uncle to experience the dickens story of his namesake character. In the lower-right corner is a scene from christmas ni duckburg, the barks story appearing in christmas parade #9.
Yes, that's a giant christmas tree being hoisted atop a ferris wheel next to duckburg city hall mid-bottom - a special central spot had to be found for a scene from christmas for shacktown, many a duckfan's favorite barks story, from donald duck four color #367. In the lower-left is one of rosa's favorite bakrs christmas stories from christmas in disneyland #1when the ducks enjoy a white christmas (due to volcanic ash) on a tropical island while hunting black pearls. Going up the left side we next have a scene from another christmas treasure hunt - a submarine search fro a sunken ocean liner in the untitled story from wdc&s #172. Finally, to complete the scene started by the flea-bitten horse on the opposite side, you see $crooge forcing donald to dress up as a cut-rate santa claus to fool huey, dewey and louie in a letter to santa from christmas parade #1.
