Funny things

Vishandel Fluks

In 1998, the American artist Don Rosa made a story that played in the Dutch East Indies (now Indonesia) of the 19th century. Rosa needed some Dutch text for his story, which I gladly provided. He also had some space (at the bottom of page 4) to put the text "Vishandel Fluks" (Fishmonger Fluks)...(*)

The story ("The Cowboy Captain of the Cutty Sark") has been published as an extra bonus to Weekly 1999-27.

For some reason, I now collect all versions of this story that are published in the world. I have for instance Italian, Finnish, and even Estonian reprints. In all cases the "Vishandel" is clearly visible. Except in Greece: there they retouched the text...

Pictures: the original, Dutch, Danish, and Swedish versions (the text becomes a bit unclear due to the colouring).

(*) Only now that I'm writing this, I realise that the 19th-century spelling ("Vischhandel Fluks") should have been used!

Personal memories

Donald Duck goes shopping

In 1999, the daughter of my parents' neighbours, Astrid Vegt (age 8) found out that I am a big Disney comics fan. Especially for me, she drew a Donald Duck story: "Donald Duck goes Shopping". The story is in a miniature booklet, enclosed in an envelope.




This is the envelope:

Of course, the story has been added to the Inducks database!
