Item Description
Large, highly-detailed and incredibly impressive bronze sculpture atop marble base w/overall size of 6x11x9" tall and combined weight of over 16 lbs. Produced in an edition of just 150 for the 1996 official Disneyana Convention at Walt Disney World, this piece was issued at $1,800 and instantly sold out. Based on the short of the same name, this is a superb depiction of an angry Donald Duck about to take a tumble as he slips on a bunched up rug and knocks over a vase. Incredibly expressive image of Donald w/his hat flying off of his head. In front of him is a book w/raised text reading "Carl Barks Studio Features Donald Duck In Self Control By Carl Barks - Artist Bruce Lau - Sculptor." Incised text on rug includes Bark's signature and "53/150" edition number. Mint as issued. This is the actual example shown in The Official Price Guide to Disney Collectibles by Ted Hake and comes with COA.
