Carl Barks

Donald Duck Tells About Kites v1 #NN, 1954 - Published by Southern California Edison, this free comic was distributed to promote kite flying safety. They license Donald Duck and his nephews to appeal specifically to children. Carl Barks, responsible for the duck's popularity in comics, is tasked with illustrating an eight page story. Even without the typical glossy comic book cover, his artwork entertains as much as it educates. Note that this version is sponsored by Southern California Edison Company. Two other variants exist: one sponsored by Pacific Gas and Electric and another with no text at all in the pink box. This is 1 of 1 Donald Duck Tells About Kites issues by Barks.
