The following information is from Alberto Becattini:

<<
Carl Barks submitted 12 gags in 1939 and 2 in 1940. I have no clue as to
which strips he actually wrote. Apart from 39-09-11, which was spotted by
Michael Naiman and published in Comic Book Marketplace # 40. Indeed, Michael
found that Barks had recycled that daily strip gag as the "Beans" gag page
appearing in Four Color # 189.

Michael (if you're reading this) or anyone: do we know of other published
Barks strips?
