DON ROSA:

"For Old Time's Sake" (US 43) shows a room in which the ducks try to
protect themselves against Magica's powers. Scrooge hasn't his safety
helmet on and so he hides in a little room where his ink is stored. 

I can't remember any library rooms, which doesn't say much at all,
but maybe Scrooge doesn't really have a library? Except for buying
some ancient books, Scrooge might prefer to go to the Duckburg library,
instead of building a book collection of his own.

In the art-only "The Invisible Intruder" (US 44), Scrooge has a giant
bedroom in the money bin. Maybe Scrooge used it for something else
after removing the giant bed?

In several stories, a hidden trap is shown in front of Scrooge's desk. 

In "Back to the Klondike" (OS 456), a giant boxing glove comes from
above Scrooge's head. 

In "Clothes make the Duck" (US 32), Scrooge tries to get rid of Daisy's
club, which completely ruins his clothes. Scrooge escapes by climbing 
into an air vent, which is shown as being in the money part of the
money bin. In general, this story also shows a lot of backgrounds
which contain the inside of the money bin.

In "The Case of the Sticky Money" (US 42), details are shown of the
roof of the money bin.

In "A Spicy Tale" (US 39), Scrooge drinks nutmeg tea. Maybe he has
a special storage room for it? (Nutmeg tea isn't always easily 
available, as the story learns.)

The statue contest story (WDC 138) shows a cellar in the money bin. 

The rare coins story (WDC 130) contains references to the money at
the bottom of the money bin.


Best wishes,
