I have one that I bought because it was cheap and I wanted something from his estate. torontodesignguy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I suppose doing so increased the chances that the book would be thrown away. I found this Mickey Mouse in the dollar box at a comic and scifi convention in Houston back in the early eighties. It was cut up and works as seen below. Sqeggs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dangerous Disguise is an interesting book; that is when Barks was getting tired of the ducks and put in a lot of interesting human like characters in a fun tale that is quite different than his other books.

Badger Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 Got my Uncle Scrooge #6 back. This was a bear to get an accurate scan of the colors of the book in the holder. This is the best I was able to do and it is not close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yellow Kid Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 That's a great copy of an almost impossible book to find in higher grades. Yours is the nicest one I have seen in a long time. Congratulations! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tri-Color Brian Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 I already have a high grade copy of WDCS #95, but HHWolfman made me such a great deal at his shop yesterday that I had to buy this water-stained undercopy. I love this cover...and I also picked up this undercopy #104 from him... Badger 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's mine and, yeah, it's hard to scan accurately. It was in a 6.5 slab as well. Badger 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tri-Color Brian Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 In addition to those two duplicates I posted above, I also picked up these...for the astronomical price of $1.50 ea...there's just too many Disney books out there... szav 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hap Hazard Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 This is a recent find and I was wondering if Uncle Scrooge 179 is considered that rare anymore. This was a big deal during the 90's at least in the Comic Book Market Place. Please forgive this Bronze age US in the Goldenage section. Wanted some knowledgeable feedback.
