He responded with a smile, “I always liked The Goose Egg Nugget very much -- it told its own story.” Another Rainbow produced it as a mini litho and did a full-size print of another that Barks said was “a very close second,” Nobody’s Spending Fool. If collectors today thought they wanted to invest in a single lithograph, serious consideration would have to be given to The Goose Egg Nugget! This is the story of his masterpiece … One day many long years ago, young prospector Scrooge McDuck brazenly strode into the local Dawson City saloon. As all (well, almost all) patrons stare in wide-eyed wonder, he reaches into his poke and reveals the gold that will forever separate him from every other seeker of fortune in the Klondike -- The Goose Egg Nugget! In this painting, Carl Barks wove a rich tapestry of tension that draws the viewer’s gaze inexorably to the prize, glittering in light that seems to come more from Scrooge’s look of unbridled triumph than from the dim oil lamp. This painting was issued in 1996 as a limited edition miniature lithograph by Another Rainbow, the 32nd of a long-run series, rendered in 14 colors and touchplates, printed by Chicago’s Black Box on Opalesque Keramique, an exotic archival paper with exceptional ink holdout. It was available in a Regular Edition of 595 copies, 100 Gold Plates, 100 Klondyke Special Edition prints and 5 boxed sets of Progressive Proofs. There have been no previous editions, there will be none in the future, and there are no unsigned or unnumbered copies. All printing plates have been destroyed to prevent future use. The print proposed here is part of the Canadian “Klondyke” Special Edition. These 100 commemorative prints were issued for the benefit of the Klondyke Centennial Society in Dawson City, Yukon.     On Jun-11-08 at 17:36:28 PDT, seller added the following information: Sellers: Get your own map of past buyers.
