One of Carl Barks’s last paintings, MERRY CHRISTMAS! (1996) refers to Scrooge’s first appearance, in the 1947 story, “Christmas on Bear Mountain”. The actual last painting also starred Scrooge (image 2, which doesn’t seem to exist in a better quality online whereas his last story, “The Dainty Daredevil” (1968) featured Daisy Duck, a character he never used much. The last image shows the first art Barks sent to Disney in 1935—I’ve featured others from the same set earlier today.With those lasts and firsts, today’s Barks theme ends. -- source link
