Digest #43

[Don Rosa]

COMMENTS TO #4?:

Harry F.:
	STILL the explanation from Oberon doesn't "wash". Egmont doesn't just send photostats to publishers unless the story has been 
specifically REQUESTED by serial number. And the only way Oberon would know the serial number is by seeing the actual story art. 
Therefore, they knew all along what they ordered. And the previous two chapters were available and fully colored. And at least part 
1 was the same length as 3. I'm not trying to carry this on forever, but I'm just explaining how these excuses from the nice folks 
at Oberon don't make 100% sense.
	And you say they used that story because they thought it was good? Tha's swell -- but you said they don't like to use my stories 
in the most prominent publications because they don't LIKE 'em. This is all confusin'.
	By the way, when I dug into my files to see if I'd missed a credit listing in that Oberon use of "Pied Piper" (as you said, I didn't)
 I jotted down the Dutch issues with my stories that I already have. Maybe this is all there is -- I dunno -- but it's not many and 
I suspect there are more.
	I HAVE: DONALD DUCK 1990 - #15 & 47; 1991 - #14.
		DONALD DUCK EXTRA: 1991 - #2, 6, 9, 11.

		DONALD DUCK EXTRA: 1992 - #3, 9, 10.
	That's it. If you can find others, I'd sure like to get 'em.

	TOM GALLOWAY -- I think it was T.G. That last message in the digest didn't seem to have a name on it. 
	I would be VERY INTERESTED to know just who knew about Barks' snubbing me in Atlanta, and exactly HOW they knew it. Could you please 
investigate that for me??? It's important to me to know just what's going on and how big of a fool I was made.
