This is another dream come true for me...next to my Barks halfpage this is probably the piece I’ve been wanting for the longest time. When I was a kid I loved Barks Scrooge & Donald but at one point I also got my hands on a reprint edition of old Gottfredson stories and was instantly hooked. The energy and dynamics Gottfredson was able to put into those early Mickey stories is just amazing...

This spectacular daily comes from what is probably my favorite Gottfredson story ever, The Seven Ghosts. To top it off this Daily has it all...Mickey, Goofy (in his wonderful Sherlock Holmesesque outfit) AND Donald (who did not appear in many stories - as far as my research goes this seems to be the 3rd oldest surviving Mickey Mouse/Gottfredson Daily and Disney comic artwork in general featuring Donald Duck!!!) as well as many beautiful blacks...and as an added bonus the first appearance of one of the Ghosts...
This daily is actually on the cover of the 4th instalment of Fantagraphics great reprint collection.

I’m always looking for more Gottfredson / Mickey Mouse daily art from the 1930’s through the 1950’s, so if you have any you’d like to sell (or just to chat about - it’s always great to talk art), please don’t hesitate to contact me…
