R: Different donald ducks in Topolino 184 ??? (Guido Martina)

[Luca Boschi]

Hi!

About the last Mickey Parade Géant...
(...)
In this story are two panels of this kind, with two Donald's heads in them,
but they seem to have been added later by Mickey Parade or maybe was it so
at the first publication? (Could someone who has the original tell us?)

The first panel is page 30 panel 5, looks like  Barks' early Donalds.

The second is page 14 pane l5, looks like Al Taliaferro's strips from the
early 50es' Donald.

It's like in the original Italian version... I know the story's original,
large, marvelous artworks very well, since I used them for two different
exhibition, in Italy (they are in the vault of Disney-Italia's Archive). The
small Donald's pictures were glued on the paper by the Mondadori's editors
(Mario Gentilini, Ambrogio Vergani) in the 50es before the story's first
printing.
Since the story is so beautiful, we choose it to be reprinted in one of the
last issueos of "I Maestri Disney", last year, and for this reason it was
discovered by the clever French editors, who like Bottaro's style very much.
