Item Description
From same high quality series as item #2237. 11" tall w/bone china figurine atop wood base. Issued in 1994 by Another Rainbow through Connoisseur of Malvern. Donald is depicted in dapper attire w/zircon accent on tie and he holds a bouquet of flowers in one hand and and his cane in the other. One of Donald's nephews serves him as a shoe shine boy. One side of the shoe shine kit has gold Barks signature applied just before the final firing. Based on his 1975 painting. Limited edition of 100 produced, but of those 100, only 75 remain, 25 having been destroyed in an arranged agreement between Another Rainbow and The Walt Disney Company. Disney oversaw the destruction of these items. This is an even rarer artist proof edition and numbered "5." Does not come in original box but Mint as issued. Comes with 15x17.75" framed and double-matted lithograph of original 1975 Carl Barks painting. Hand-numbered, titled and signed by Barks. Also included is "Carl Barks And The Disney Ducks" book published by Another Rainbow which has matching edition number, both of these pieces are "AP5." Print does come w/original box and also Mint as issued.
