Item Description

Here's a nice, tight, beautifully-cared-for, 73-year-old Disney comic with 52 pages of story - including the 24-page lead story by the 'Good Duck Artist', Carl Barks! He did the cover too!

In "Donald Duck in Ancient Persia", the ducks are kidnapped by a mysterious scientist and flown to Persia, where they dig into an ancient city, Itsa Faka. The inhabitants of the city have been dehydrated while still living and the scientist restores the royal entourage to life by pouring its dust into a special mixture. Donald is mistaken for the prince who jilted King Nevvawaza's daughter and a marriage ceremony is ordered by the king.

There are also two more Donald Duck stories, by long-time Disney comic book artist Paul Murray comprising 24 pages.

It's all bookended by three Tony Strobl full page gags!

This is a beautiful copy of this popular issue - it has a strong binding, and the pages are bright and colorful and free from the toning of most comics this age. It's one of Carl Barks' cleverest stories along with some of his funniest art! At 8.0 VF we think you will be very impressed with this comic, especially since we're pricing it WAY below Overstreet's valuation of $368 at just $290!
