Ciao Lorenzo, grazie! Controlla bene nei messaggi perchè ti ho risposto un paio di giorni fa! ;)

Owner:

L'alone grigio è dovuto alla scansione :S

Owner:

Thanks for the comment Marcus! I like the drama going on in this page, culminating in that last panel where the bad guys want to put the poor Donald to death! :D

Owner:

I agree, and I love his Goofy so much! :)

Owner:

right! ahah

Owner:

Thank you! ;)

Owner:

It would have been smart and much easier to do so...but the duck way is more fun! Although less effective :P

Owner:

Hello Thomas, pls check the last image, it's the framed page, I'm really really in love with the final result! 

Owner:

It's still at the shop atm, I'll add it here once it's done. Matter of days, I also can't wait to see the result :P

Owner:

ahah, you're probably right!

Gio Scarp

hai atteso pazientemente e sei stato premiato, so che è in buone mani ;P

Owner:

I also love his cars and to have one here is the icing on the cake! It reminds me of Taxi Driver movie.

Bellissima, bravo Giorgio!

Owner:

Thank you very much Alex for kindly allowing me to take care of this wounderful page from now on; it's always a pleasure to deal with you. 

Owner:

Thanks man, I'm glad to share such a beauty :)

Owner:

Thanks Matti! I'm happy to finally get one comic book piece! :)

Owner:

Great piece Matti!

Owner:

Easily the best Gottfredson from the 30s out there. I'm glad at least this one it's well cemented in your collection.  

Owner:

I remember when I was a kid I fell in love with that specific detail, I started to draw my own comics with a character with that hat :D

Owner:

;P

Owner:

ahah! I know, I could only upload 6 more pics, I feel sorry for all of you wishing to read the end of the story! :P

Owner:

Grazie! :)

Owner:

eheh it would be great to see this one, with fluo colors, on a t-shirt! Maybe I'll do it for myself the day I will visit Hawaii :P

Owner:

Yes, exactly the definition the creator, Franco Bonvicini, gives to his character: "ink blot" :)

Owner:

Gio Scarp

Spettacolo!

Owner:

Yea, I would love to see a constant flow of Disney stories drawn by Bonfa! :P

Owner:

Thanks for your comment Marcus, I couldn't have said it better, I'm a big fan of Bonfatti's style since I was a kid :)

Owner:

Thomas FISH

Everyone's wondering how much man, don't leave us like this please...:D

Owner:

Thanks Matti, you really gave me an interesting info as i was searching if the piece had ever been published somewhere. Nice to know I will find it on AR CBL once i'll menage to get my hands on my copy back in Italy. As far as provenence I'm curious too so I'll ask the seller if he may help to track its path between mine and Barks's hands :P It was actually the first time i saw the piece.

Owner:

That's probably why it captured me! 

Owner:

Grazie! 

Owner:

Yes, that was exactly my assumption, maybe I didnt express myself correctly referring to "political correctness". Thanks for your comment, I always like to discuss about things...:)

Owner:

Well, in the story bullets were flying even before US arrival, due to the war, not because he steal the treasure; he also finds it only at the very end of the story when the country is already at peace. So, the only good thing about rejecting this cover is the fact that the events brings it to me now :)

In conclusion, at least for me, there will be never something "incorrect" in Barks's work, and US is raiding treasures in any part of the world since so many years, they're just stories, just to have fun, that's the way I see it ;)

Such a great iconic image! Many compliments! That cover though... ;P

Owner:

I love that era, the style and the vibes of these artworks and yes, it's amazing to get a piece like this in such good condition from 100 years ago.

Owner:

Monty B

oh, it was you...so you took this one too...

Owner:

ahah, it's true! Well, maybe a Don Rosa fan wouldn't agree with that...:D

Owner:

Ne ho anche una anni '30, ne cercavo apposta una più recente per avere anche lo stile più moderno. Poi magari ne prendiamo anche una a metà strada se capita :P
