A Guidebook to the Carl Barks Universe (test)

Questions: Maybe this is a story made out of parts of the lost bobsled race story? A close look at the art seems to reveal traces of cutting and pasting.

CZ WDC 196 "bobsled race"

(Inducks description: Bobsled Race)

Inducks: CZ WDC 196
Barrier: MBAC-199, 210
CBL: ---
Type: story
Art: Carl Barks (Inducks artist: Carl Barks) (Inducks inker: Carl Barks)
Script: Carl Barks (Inducks writer: Carl Barks)
Hero: "Donald Duck" (Inducks hero: Donald Duck)
Submission: 1955, December 15 (Inducks submission: 1955-12-15)
Publication date: [none or unknown]
Issue: [none or unknown]
Pages: 10 (Inducks pages: 10)
Intended issue: [probably Walt Disney Comics & Stories 196, Vol. 17, No. 4]
Intended publication date: [probably 1957, January]

Changes: Listed in Barks' records as "Bobsled Race", the third unpublished story was a ten-pager submitted on December 15, 1955, and probably intended for "Walt Disney's Comics and Stories" No. 196 (1957). Barks wrote on this entry: "Don't know what became of this story. Probably scrapped."

In a letter from June 4, 1956, editor Alice Cobb in Western's West Coast office told Barks to tone down the clashes among the ducks, because an irate mother had complained about Donald's "Shut up!" in the final panel of the icetaxis-story published in "Walt Disney's Comics and Stories" No. 186 (March 1956). It would be around this time that the editor's were putting issue No. 196 together and so it seems likely that the bobsled story was shelved because because it involved conflict between Donald and the nephews.

Status: The story is lost.

Notes: Recently I've compared this story with the snow statue story which was published in WDC 196 (a story Barks submitted one week later) and it looks like parts of what could be a bobsled story are used in the snow statue story. More information will follow.

Questions: As far as I know, Carl Barks has never given a recollection of what happened in the story. If you've found out more than what is mentioned here, then please let me know.

Additional credits: In his 1969 list of work for Western, Barks wrote about this story: "I bought the basic idea for this story from my daughter who lived in Washington state."

Backstage: In panel 3 of page 4, a bus' destination is identified as "Hemet," a California town near San Jacinto, where Barks lived at the time.

Research: Panel 8.6 shows people not being able to open an inward door because of pushing against it in panic, which as a result also makes it impossible to open the door from the outside. In the USA there's a law which says that all doors in public buildings must open to the outside. Possibly, this law was made after the Coconut Grove nightclub fire in Boston in the early 1940s. One victim was the famous cowboy star, Buck Jones, the star of many movies (and comic books!).

Notes: Barks's list shows that an idea for a front cover identified as "Donald Duck 'Frog in Hat'" was accepted by Western on September 17, 1953, and the drawing for that cover was accepted on October 8, 1953. That drawing was apparently never published.

Let no grass grow on your sidewalks, nor moss between your ears!
To the brave belong the fair, and to the brainy, the raise in wages!
Be smart! Be active! Be in there pitching!

Questions: Is the story's radio gag a recollection of this joke from the cartoon years, or did it also belong to the idea by Barks' daughter?
