Description

The Carl Barks Library Complete Ten Volume Set Signed by Carl Barks (Another Rainbow, 1983-90). This set of ten boxed sets, each including three hardbound books, reprints the entire output of Disney Duck stories written and drawn by Carl Barks from 1943, until his retirement in 1966. The art is reproduced in crisp black and white in oversized pages, with covers and a few stories printed in color. Also included are many full color Duck paintings Barks did during his retirement, as well as insightful articles and other extras. But the real cherry on this cake comes from a Carl Barks hand-signed autograph on one of the first pages in the first book of each set, for a total of ten autographs. Carl only signed two sets in in this fashion, including this set for Malcolm Willits, the man who uncovered the identity of the Good Duck artist and brought Mr. Barks the fame he never knew during the years he was not allowed to sign his comic work. Each set is in Excellent condition, with only a minor bit of handling wear. On the books with Barks signatures, Willits added a small "MW" in pencil on the last page to identify as his; otherwise, these books are fresh and like-new.
