david20009 Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 I purchased a complete set of all the different Carl Barks Library in Color books off the board last year and have slowly been making my way through all 141 issues. I have really been enjoying them and did not know what I had been missing by ignoring the ducks. As a result I have decided to try and pick up a few issues to add to the collection. I won these two on ComicLink today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

worldsbestcomics Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 I got a grail today in the C-Link auction Wow!!! Great book!!! Makes my purchase seem pale in comparison. Not at all. I was considering both of your beautiful books. I was fortunate enough to have a sufficient grail fund in place that I could work out another sale to supplement my fund and give me enough to make a run at the NM copy. And I appreciate the kind words from my Duck-loving brothers. This book has been on my grail list since I bought my first high-grade Ducks from Tim years ago. I got lucky on the timing - the euro is down against the dollar, the economy stinks so many buyers are on the sidelines, and I happened to have been building a grail fund over the year thinking that one of my grails might become available at an affordable price. I honestly didn't think it would be U$ 1 but I couldn't be happier. Does anyone know about the provenance of the current C-Link Scrooge run? Please send me a pm if you do. I love knowing the history of my books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duffman_Comics Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 One last Duck for me in the Clink auction Great pickups!! Talk about jumping in with both feet. I mean, I am still trying to sneak up on a decent FC 386 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david20009 Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Great pickups!! Talk about jumping in with both feet. I mean, I am still trying to sneak up on a decent FC 386 Sometimes you just need to jump in. I've actually been quietly bidding on nice copies of FC 386 for maybe a year and a half. It had always been one of my favorite covers. ComicLink has had a number of them come through and I've noticed Ducks do far worse there than Heritage. Now I need to find a nice 3 and 4 and then I am likely done with Scrooge as I do not really like the solid background covers although #7 looks great. I may selectively try to get some of the Donald Four Colors if the price is right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
