Correction I just went on GCD and looked and I did not remember properly. Those early Gold Key covers had multiple story taglines on multi panel covers but no word balloons. They did have square balloons inside though.

There were some GK Donald Duck covers with dialogue... sort of. They had some interior panels reproduced on the cover.

That must be what I remember. As a kid I picked up a great pile of every DD, WDCS and US  from the Dell to Gold Key transition years. Note the square word balloons!!

Cool! I thought all his books were due to working in the industry.  I guess he really loved comics.  

Well if you are in the industry you keep up with the competition. With Dell WDCS being one of the biggest sellers it would make sense he would have a subscription to keep tabs on what they were publishing.

My first pedigree book.  Crowley copy 

looks like they tried to press the subscription crease.    But still nice book.

I didn't realize Crowley had duck books!

Here is my only Crowley Duck book. I've seen others through the years, always Four Colors, but never any WD&Cs until this one.

Congratulations. I still need one of those but like to buy higher grade and don't really want to drop the change being asked for this book. It's by no means rare! Actually thought some of the Duck Four Colors went for reasonable money on Heritage last night. Maybe things are calming down?
