Happy & fruitful new year is being wished upon you all.
But good heavens to Betsy, what's this?

from which I quote, in spite of the incessant & rather
tiring Capitalisation of All Letters:

" RARE! SCROOGE MCDUCK CAPITALIST AND PROUD
OF IT! DISNEY CARL BARKS COMICS UNCLE
#50 of 400!!!! Refutes Marxist Anti-Disney Propaganda! "
etc. etc.:

" Reply to Criticism of Disney Comics Ideology
#50 of 400
EXTREMELY COVETED TREATISE ON CARL BARKS'
UNCLE SCROOGE!
This is #50 of 400 copies existing of "Scrooge McDuck
Capitalist & Proud of it!"

The definitive refutation of the Marxist book "How to read Donald Duck"
which was published in South America for revolutionaries and
aspiring Marxist utopians, which trashed Walt Disney and
Carl Barks comic books in one swoop.

This small press publication is nearly IMPOSSIBLE to obtain and
is literally worth its weight in gold! Limited to 400 copies, it is
one of the hardest Carl Barks collectibles to obtain!
As of this writing, no copies are available on Ebay, Alibris or Amazon!
12 pages cover to cover. Profusely illustrated in black and white. "

I'm rather skeptical, also because of the price: usd 950.00 (!),
"literally worth its weight in gold" indeed.

So please enlighten us, if you know what this is.
