Scrooge McDuck enjoys fresh orange juice drilled from an oil derrick and pancakes shaped like dollar bills in this Carl Barks artwork.
We added Breakfast of Tycoons to the official Carl Barks collection at Mount Olympus Awards. We’ve been selectively acquiring more and more of his stuff when the price is attractive and it just fits with all of the framed stock certificates and financial artwork.
I’ve identified a few other pieces we are interesting in actively acquiring but only on our terms. Most of the time, we have them reworked in far nicer frames, matting, etc. I’ll try and update a future post with what they look like when we are finished with them. Not that it matters much; I’m not going to sell them anytime soon. I think it would be cool to continue building our Carl Barks collection so that it is just another asset on the balance sheet.
I want my pancakes in the shape of dollar signs …
