Apparently the first issue of Duckburg Art Gallery sold out before it was even printed. (Or at least that's what the seller claims, as the first issue was supposed to be printed April 1.)
On eBay you can find the second issue listed. If you have trouble finding it, it might be because it's listed under Uncanny X-Men ...
The price this time is $1250 compared to the $100 the first issue sold for.
The same seller also got two original Barks paintings for sale.
One of them contains "9 Disney characters" ... Hmm ...
Now I get it. Donald, Daisy, the three nephews, the car and the three characters on the license plate.
And the second is the "first appearence and the origin of Bark's Uncle Scrooge" ...
I wonder what the seller have up his sleeve for his next auctions?
(He also claims to have his name in the Fine Art of Donald Duck book. Who is this guy???)
I think the e-mail address on the eBay store belongs to Theo Holstein. He's a longtime collector of lots of stuff, but I agree these gallery catalogs looks a bit suspicious. I wonder what print quality they're in..
