Description

When Don Rosa's "Quest for Kalevala" was first time published in Finland as a hard cover book in 1999, there was done 100 pieces special edition books with leather covers. 20 first books were with different colored Duck drawings. The rest 80 was with b&w Duck head drawings.
And that book has printed time after time again, already 11 editions done! But then in 2017, when Finland celebrated 100y of independence, the new edition was done, with corrections in the wording and coloring. But there was not any special editions.
So, I needed to get my own special edition. It is not that complicated, "just" needing to go over the Atlantic Ocean into some local comic book convention in US, where Don Rosa is visiting, stand in the queue, and slowly getting this artwork done. Once in queue wasn't enough! ;-) In the first round got only b&w drawing. Then again into the line, in the 2nd round Rosa kindly colored it (can't ask all at the same time, there is always queue behind you, so only b&w drawings was offered). Then I still needed to return 3rd time, once forgot to ask photo, and got a bit more colors ;-)
This is also enhanced version into last year' drawing I got, then Scrooge had walking stick, but now got the sword, just like in the cover and in the half page panel there is.
