PCH and Ducks are always a consistently good read. EC and Ducks are the best and most consistency great reads. I have a number of graded copies but I treasure the raw ones the most.

Makes me wonder what that picture was taken for since there was no publicity and I doubt Barks worked wearing a tie in his home studio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
