Item Description
Original shipping box contains 11-5/8" tall figurine on wooden base. By Another Rainbow through Connoisseur of Malvern, a British porcelain figurine studio whose works grace Buckingham Palace and The White House, this is the third in Another Rainbow's series of Carl Barks Figurines. Rendered in fine bone china, Scrooge stands atop pile of coins and cash with money bags at his right, holding tools he used to gain his first million - a pick and shovel. 87 of a limited edition of 100 produced, of these 100, only 62 remain, 38 having been destroyed in an arranged agreement between Another Rainbow and The Walt Disney Company. Disney oversaw destruction of these items. N. Mint. Comes with 15x17.75" framed and double-matted lithograph of original 1974 Carl Barks painting. Hand-numbered, titled and signed by Barks. Mint. Reverse of frame contains "Carl Barks And The Disney Ducks" book published by Another Rainbow Publishing Inc. and details Barks and his involvement with Disney. Figurine itself bears Barks' signature in gold. Each coin has details including stamped shields, eagle or laurel boughs. Dollar bills read "City Of Duckburg - Cool Cash - One Hundred Quackers." Coins have pure silver and 24 karat gold fired onto the porcelain. This figurine and the lithograph set originally retailed for $6,950 when it was issued in 1994.
