Walt Disney's Donald Duck #219

Jan 1975 · W. G. Publications; Wogan Publications · 0.20 AUD
“Land of the Totem Poles”

In "Land of the Totem Poles," Donald Duck finds himself as a reluctant salesman on the Kickmiquick River in Northwest Canada, only to discover his wares—steam calliopes—are utterly impractical. Switching to cosmetics on a whim, he inadvertently stirs up trouble with a remote tribe of Indigenous people who’ve never seen white men before. Written, drawn, and inked by Carl Barks, this 1975 adventure blends humor and cultural curiosity with the signature charm of the Disney universe, all rendered in full by Barks on both story and cover.
