Today we have a follow up to two earlier posts (Check HERE and HERE.)
In those I asked the question what this cover originally had looked like.
And I made a rough suggestion.
Well, two and a half years later we are getting just a little closer to the answer.
Take a look at Barks payment records below.
On September 15, 1955 we have an entry for a cover labeled as "Kids Blow Cake Apart".
This doesn't explain why the artwork was altered, but now we know what was supposed to happen to the cake. :)
Also note that he was paid $67,50 for the other two covers listed. But only $50 for the cover to Donald Duck 46. Was this because he only did artwork or because the editors had to revise the art?
Now, back to civilization...

It's really funny that you're posting about the Hondorica issue. Because I was literally holding it when I clicked on the blog today. Talking to David
