carl barks original art. uncle scrooge 39
"http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1144505634"
Seller: uncle scrooge 39.... Original Carl Barks Art. premilary cover
sketch on paper ( a few light folds/creases ) page condition okay.
approx size 10"x 8". drawn by carl barks 1955. signed bottom, also
stamped walt disney production. used as cover for uncle scrooge
number 39. was office file copy.
[Contains a MUCH LARGER SCAN than the one I've mentioned here on
28 April 2001, plus a scan of the drawing's certificate.
This certificate mentions that the drawing came from the collection
of Lisa Hampton, "a long time friend of Carl and Gare Barks."
The certicate contains the name Mark Wilson and is dated April 5, 1999.
The drawing itself contains a penciled date, which is "Mar 25 1955 office".
I find this interesting because the art of the cover was submitted on
November 1, 1961, which is about *six* years later!
Does someone know more about this Lisa Hampton collection?
Does it contain more previously unknown material?
The seller is identified as "timetrapper". I haven't subscribed to Ebay,
so I can't see who it is. The certificate-scan refers to catalogues.
Does someone know these catalogues? DvE.]

CARL BARKS ORIGINAL DONALD DUCK ARTWORK
"http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1142989602"
Seller: This wonderful piece is titled: "Airborne and Climbing"
On April 12, 1997, Walt Disney World celebrated Carl Barks' birthday
in a BIG WAY. Carl, along with 200 of his closest friends, celebrated his
96th birthday with a "Duck" party and great collectibles. Carl produced
75 original drawings for the shindig and all of these one-of-a-kind
original pieces sold out. [...] Image is approx. 9 3/4" x 12 3/4" and
comes framed in gold leafed molding sized at 12 1/2" x 18 1/2" with UV
Plexiglas as seen here. The back of the picture is sealed with a
Carl Barks Studio label. The item has been signed in Carl's block style
lettering on the corner of the drawing. The electronic scan of this
piece does not do justice to the magnificence of Carl Barks' craft at
96 years of age! I am still in awe...
[Is this art included in the "Barks Treasury" book? DvE.]

Carl Barks Original art 1970's
"http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1143412918"
Seller: This is a very "Rare" original Drawing for the "Xerzes" painting
that Carl did in the 1970's. Jeff Cain says these were the years that
"Carl did his Best work" I am trying to buy the original Oil, but the
seller will not sell it at any price. This is your chance to get one
of the best sexest female girl ducks Carl ever did. This is the exact
same size as the painting he did from it. It is signed by Carl.
[Pencil drawing of the duck female in the lower right corner of non-Disney
painting "Xerxes and Harem" (80-01). Note the "supersize picture" link,
which gives a larger scan than clicking on the thumbnail. DvE.]
