The first Flinthearth's non-barksian story

[Luca Boschi]

To Katie, and for who's intertested in this issue: it seems that the very
first Flinthearth's non-barksian story is Italian, and specifically  Zio
Paperone e il bisbilione, written by Osvaldo Pavese, art by Giuseppe Perego,
in  "Topolino" n. 608  (23-07-1967). Since the art is quite - AHEM, ER... -
not oustanding, the story is not so famous; indeed it's quite important,
because shows the first (and only?) team-up Scrooge-Flintheart-Rockerduck,
and even if Flintheart is in Duckburg (but it's not written that he *lives*
there) it's clearly shown a difference between his personality and
Rockerduck's one.
Moreover, this story also clearly states the *ufficial* Italian translation
of  Flinthearth Glomgold into Cuordipietra Famedoro, even if this very name
was used only one time before, in translating original Barks' stories.
