Grandma Duck's Farm Friends / Four Color Comics v2 #1073 - Carl Barks art & cover

Carl Barks

(Walt Disney's) Grandma Duck's Farm Friends v1 / Four Color Comics v2 #1073, 1960 - This is Carl Barks' only cover for the series, yet it seems to lack the verve of his interior pages. In one story, Gyro Gearloose invents snow vaporizer with the usual unintended consequences. Uncle Scrooge visits Grandma Duck's farm and gets a lesson on winter fun from Huey, Louie and Dewey. Barks draws the characters with great humor and great care. The opening non-Barks story clearly suffers by comparison. "Touche Toupee" was reprinted in Walt Disney Comics Digest #39, "Free Ski Spree" in Walt Disney Comics Digest #20 and "The Snow Chaser" in Walt Disney Comics Digest #33. This is 2 of 3 Grandma Duck's Farm Friends issues by Barks.
