September 1943 Dell Publishing. Donald Duck “The Mummy’s Ring”. Huey, Dewey & Louie Appearance Carl Barks (Story & Art) Carl Buettner (Cover) Merrill de Maris (Story). 1 of 5 Graded CGC 4.0 Universal. Four Color #29 Donald Duck (Dell, 1943) CGC VG 4.0 Off-white pages. As one of 78 total graded by CGC non restored to date, this is a tough find for this key book. This issue was drawn entirely by Carl Barks (unlike issue #9 where he shared the art with Jack Hannah), and the lead story “Donald Duck and the Mummy’s Ring” is particularly memorable. As Thomas Andrae noted, this story begins to show the antiquarianism and use of authentic locales… Which distinguishes his work from that of other comic book artists. ” Ron Goulart called “Mummy’s Ring” and similar stories “graphic novels filled with adventure, comedy, satire, and some of the best cartooning to be found in comics. The influence of Barks’ adventure tales on the likes of George Lucas and Steven Spielberg, as well as a whole generation of comic book artists, is well-documented. Of course, the name of the “good artist” was not mentioned in the comic itself, nor known to any readers until many years later.
