2/    I've thumbed through my colection of  "Mickey Parade",
       to introduce you to another relative, but I either missed the
       issue or thumbed too fast, and eventullay haven't found it yet.
       He's a cousin who's just graduated from a prestigious university;
       Scrooge hiers him; he is very ambitious and wants to dig another
       Panama Canal.

I guess this is
MP  106g    I TL 1294-A   38 3      RSc RSc ADC US  Un manager à ménager

ideale] [/rep-ori;TL 1294] [/pages-ori;38] [/pagel-ori;3]

There is a paragraph on cousin "Burt Naldo" in "I Disney Italiani" (the
yellow book). The natural character for this "role" would be Gladstone, but
Scarpa introduced a brand new cousin instead (with brio).

3/    Do you know "Tante Graçieuse" from I-T 230-A1 / 231 A2,
       reprinted in MP 50 (1984-- I was 10!) as "Mickey et le Collier
Chirikawa"
       ("Mickey and the Chirikawa necklace)?

For information, Zia Topolinda also reappears in a Cavazzano story (MP 106)
and a few recent stories for "Topolino" and "Minni"  where she was also
translated as "Tante Miquette" (once again a mistake).
