YD 39-09-11 ten thousand beans and a grapefruit

Type: newspaper strip
Art: Al Taliaferro
Script: Carl Barks (or plotter?)
Hero: [Donald Duck]
Publication date: 1939, September 11
Issue: [unidentified newspaper]
Pages: ...

Additional credits: One of 12 newspaper gags submitted by Barks in 1939.

Backstage: Alberto Becattini: "Carl Barks submitted 12 gags in 1939 and 2 in 1940. I have no clue as to which strips he actually wrote. Apart from 39-09-11, which was spotted by Michael Naiman and published in Comic Book Marketplace # 40. Indeed, Michael found that Barks had recycled that daily strip gag as the "Beans" gag page appearing in Four Color # 189."

An article by Stefan Schmidt, published in an issue of "Der Donaldist", contains more examples of possible Taliaferro-Barks connections.

Congruences:

W OS 189-04 beanz in jar
Similar gag.

Notes: Reprinted in "Donald Duck" No. 301, March 1997.

Questions: Is Carl Barks the writer or the plotter of this strip? Is this the only newspaper strip which has been identified as being among Barks' 1939 and 1940 gags? What is the issue number of the "Der Donaldist" with the article about possible Taliaferro-Barks connections?
