	Several other DCMLers mention some late 1940s stories that also refer 
to Duckburg.
	But I recall Barks actually mentioning Duckburg a second time as early 
as 1945. I don't actually have the story nearby, but I believe it's WDC 
61, where the nephews are detectives. While navigating the city, 
somebody (the kids themselves?) hold up a map that specifically 
mentions Duckburg, or so I believe.
	I'd appreciate someone else doublechecking.

	David
