I have gone through my Dutch Barks collection and looked for employees of
Scrooge. Below, you find a list of what I found. I can't give all the
English names, since I looked at the Dutch versions. But mostly, when the
Dutch story gives a name to the employee, the original has a name, too.
Maybe Don or someone else can look at that.
(BTW: where is miss Quackfaster called Miss Quackfaster?)
I tried to describe the employees, but most of them actually are
neutral dog-faces. However, the clerk in the last US stories seems to be the
same.
I started with the Christmas Parade story. Some earlier stories may have a
butler ('Bear Mountain'?) but I think that's less relevant.
Here is the list:
Issue Page Clerk(s)
CP 21 ('you can't guess') butler called [Dutch Lodewijk]
WDC 144 1+10 clerk
WDC 159 2 clerk
US 5 7 clerk
WDC 164 3 quite fat one with glasses
US 6 1 4 employees
US 7 1 butler with sideburns
4 bookkeeper
US 7 (wages gag) 2 employees
US 11 (party gag) butler with sideburns
US 15 4 bookkeeper
US 16b 3 clerk (quiz show story)
US 18 (poverty gag) U$ _talks_ by intercom to miss [Dutch Eugenia]
US 19 1 8 employees carry tickets (#1 is fat, glasses)
last employees #1 and #2 of page 1
US 22 1 5 employees
2 2 other employees
5 one of the employees seems to have changed clothes.
He's called mr. Clerkmore.
US 23 2+3 chief-clerk
2 2 boyes from the office (and a nurse)
US 33b 2+3 a very wrinkled "mail clerk"
US 36 1 miss Quackfaster (no name mentioned?)
WDC 258 4 clerk
5 3 clerks
US 38 9 some personnel
US 39 1+2 miss Quackfaster (still no name?)
US 44b 4+6 (large bed story) goose clerk called [Dutch Manusje]
US 45 4 female goose-clerk
US 46 1+last older clerk with glasses called Clerkly
WDC 280 3+4 fat clerk with glasses
US 47 1+5 clerk with glasses called [Dutch Klerks]
US 55 2 a dog-miss
US 61 1-4 clerk with glasses
US 62 1 a dog-miss
2 a clerk
US 70 7 clerk called [Dutch Klerks] (looks the same as in US 61
and elsewhere)
(there's one more PIG-clerk in a Daisy Diary story, but that doesn't count,
I guess)
