- Pages: 17 5/6
(Inducks pages: 17 5/6)
- Filled out with: non-Barks transitional panel
- Inducks description: Black pearls near volcanic island
Additional credits:
Barks drew the story of Tabu Yama to fit a Christmas annual with a frame tale
titled "Christmas in Disneyland", about Santa Claus taking two children to
Disneyland. As Timmie and Taffy visit each section of the park, Santa
reminisces about one or another Disney character having a holiday adventure.
Various artists contributed these episodes; Barks was asked for a duck story
to accompany the riverboat ride in Adventureland. Though the ride is meant
to evoke African jungles, Barks set his story in the South Seas; but this
seems not to have bothered his editors, who smoothed over the matter with a
line about "tropical waters and the jungles of the world". The inlet of the
story's last panel was filled with a transitional panel returning us to the
frame tale. (In some reprints, e.g. in The Netherlands, this panel is replaced
by new art.)
Layout:
Doesn't end with a full page.
Questions:
The splash panel of the reprint in The Carl Barks Library - Set VI
contains a caption with the name "Donald Duck". Does this caption also
appear in the original Christmas in Disneyland
publication?

- Inducks description: Donald fails to follow through on his promised delivery of a letter to Santa; HDL wants a steam digger as Christmas present
Layout:
- Full page splash panel.
- Contains freeform shaped panels.
Backstage:
Donald and Scrooge were not the only hotheads to scrap with steam shovels. In 1926,
Liberty magazine ran a cartoon by James Montgomery Flagg showing a similar battle of
monster machines on a construction site in New York. Flagg was by this time a prominent
illustrator and regular contributor to Judge, a magazine to which Barks himself
would shortly submit cartoons.
When shown this drawing in 1985, Barks expressed surprise: "I had no idea Flagg ever stooped
to such slapstick. No, I had never seen his cartoon, nor had I ever read Liberty magazine
except in dentists' waiting rooms. The idea of steam shovels fighting is another of those
'naturals' that anybody should be able to think up."
Details:
Scrooge seems to be wearing a Santa Claus coat in panel 15.8, judging the
stripes on the fur on his right sleeve. They look exactly like the stripes on
the Santa Claus clothes in the rest of the story.
Donald's boot shown on page 21 to 24, travels from his right-foot to
his left-foot and back.
On the Disney Comics Mailing List, Larry Giver wrote:
"Daniel van E. suggested a "visual error" regarding Donald's boot in
Christmas Parade #1. After Donald and Scrooge fight in panel 1 page 21,
parts of their Santa costumes come off, leaving each with only their
coats and one boot each in panel 3 (strange how their trowsers can
come off and still leave one boot on). In panel 7, page 21, Scrooge
has no boots on at all, even though there was no additional fighting.
Donald retains one boot on through to the end of the story. But
probably the visual errors Daniel notices concerns which of Donald's
feet has the boot. It's on the right foot in page 21 panels 3 and 7,
but on the left foot in page 21 panel 6, page 22 panel 1, page 23 panels 1
and 7, and page 24 panel 5.
I recall a similar problem in some Mickey stories with Peg Leg Pete;
sometimes the peg leg isn't consistently the same leg throughout
the story."

Additional credits:
The entry for this black-and-white comic book (Large Feature Comic No. 7,
published by Dell in 1942) in
Comic Book Price Guide #11 says that it was
'written by Carl Barks, Jack Hannah, & Nick
George."
In a May 17, 1981, letter to Michael Barrier, Barks told
about the story: "Pluto Saves the Ship
was written by Jack Hannah, Nick George, and I in 1942 in our evening hours. It was not an
adaptation of a cartoon story. Eleanor Packer of Whitman Pub. may have dreamed up the basic
plot. It was only a one-shot special designed to take advantage of the wartime jitters.
Anyway, we three did the final draft in rough sketch form in my den room in North Hollywood.
The post-Pearl Harbor blackouts were in effect, and we had all window blinds closed and taped shut.
It was hot and stuffy, and we consumed many beers. The story shows the effects. One of Disney's
layout men with a flair for drawing panel after panel of shipyard scaffolding did the artwork.
I can't recall his name.
Because of the fact that we were only writing action gags to flesh out someone else's story line,
none of us felt we deserved any claim to fame. I certainly forgot the whole business very
quickly. As for payment, I doubt that we received more than a dollar a page."
Status:
The script most likely is lost.

Description:
Re-inked version of page 1, 16 and 17 of W OS 29-01 and the Mummy's Ring.
Backstage:
When Michael Barrier
asked Barks why these pages are redrawn, he wrote in a February 17, 1972
letter: "I don't remember exactly, but I think the original printing plates
were lost or damaged."
Comparing these three new pages with the ones as they were published in 1943,
shows a shift in inking style. Obvious differences are the Ducks' faces (see,
for example, panel 16.6), the positions of the dialogue balloons, and
the lettering. The only real change is made in panel 17.5. In the original
version, the railing cuts through the ducks' necks, while in the redrawn
version the ducks are positioned higher so that the railing is placed in front
of their chests.

the story does not appear to have been stretched through the enlargement and
rearrangement of panels.

steamboat's smoke.

This art-only story is mainly based on a series of gags. At least some of these
gags were obviously taken from elsewhere:
- Churning rocking chair (1.5)
- November 15, 1938 Donald Duck daily strip.
- Dirty necks (6.2 to 7.1)
- September 27, 1943 Donald Duck daily strip
- Ice-cream (10.3 to 10.7)
- Idea is the same as in Barks' art-only ice cream cone gag
(OS 238-04).
- City noises (10.5 to 10.6)
- November 14, 1938 Donald Duck daily strip.
Layout:
- Full page splash panel.
- Contains freeform shaped panels.

Landmark:
This is the last story Barks drew (he did not do the writing), two years after his retirement
in 1966.
Backstage:
In a November 22, 1968 letter to Michael Barrier, Barks wrote: "The Daisy Duck story in
D.C. Digest must be one I drew for Chase [Craig] last June. 8 pages. He was
desperate for someone to do the art. All the current ink slingers having been busy or
away on vacation." The story was submitted on June 18, 1968.
