The entire Carl Barks Library is thirty volumes in ten slipcases. This is the first set. All comics are in black and white, with the occasional color cover or painting or two-color comic. This collection covers all of Carl Barks's Donald Duck comics from Four Color #9 (1942) - Four Color #223 (1949). There are also numerous essays about the work of Barks, and a few of his oil paintings, as well as early drafts and character sketches of the stories within this volume.
