Ending soon inside our The Art of All Things Disney and More! Signature® Auction

Disney Legend Carl Barks created a new story for the lavish Uncle Scrooge McDuck: His Life and Times book, which he illustrated storybook-style with a series of 12 watercolor paintings, and this is the final painting from the set.

The story concerned Uncle Scrooge worrying about what will happen to his fabulous fortune after he passes away and leads him to search for a youth rejuvenator in far-away Khunza Valley. The story was first outlined in 1968, but not fully written until the aforementioned book.

This watercolor and ink painting shows a happy Scrooge diving into his pile of coins as Donald Duck and nephews Huey, Dewey, and Louie wave goodbye, their adventure into finding everlasting life finished, as the timepieces are no longer needed and placed in the trash can. It’s the fortune that will keep old Scrooge McDuck alive for centuries, so let the sands flow!

According to Barks, the story “gives him a means of going on and on forever so you don’t have to feel that he comes to the end of the line and dies all at once. He’s going to just keep on going into eternity. Kids that read about him a hundred years from now can think of him as still being alive. He has found the fountain of everlasting youth with his money.”

The painting, one of only two Money Bin images in the story, is in our opinion the masterpiece of the set. It is hand-signed and in an ornate gold-tone frame, matted with an approximate image area of 9.75” x 14.5”; the painting is behind Plexiglas. The frame measures 24” x 29.5”

Perhaps the single most important piece of Hollywood memorabilia ends soon and is currently bidding at $1,550,000.

This pair of stolen ruby slippers, once worn by Judy Garland in the iconic film The Wizard of Oz, are set to be auctioned soon within our Signature Auction!

These particular slippers have a fascinating (and fraught) history, more so than any of the other pairs that are accounted for.

To start, this pair is mismatched with the pair owned by the Smithsonian Museum in Washington, D.C., meaning during production the left shoe of this pair was worn with the right shoe of the Smithsonian pair, and the right shoe with the Smithsonian’s left shoe.

Several pairs of slippers were first discovered in 1970 as part of MGM’s liquidation, and an auction was held which sold many of the costumes, props, and set pieces from throughout MGM’s history. It was during this time that these two pairs were mismatched. When Kent Warner, a costumer hired to help find and catalog auction items, discovered the many pairs of ruby slippers used for production, he told the auction house that only one pair was tound, and it was the Smithsonian pair that was sold to an anonymous buyer for $15,000 (It’s unclear why Kent mismatched the pairs, especially as they were numbered on the inside).

The rest of the pairs Kent secretly kept and sold to other collectors, that is except for the most pristine pair which he kept for himself (this pair is now owned by the Academy Museum in Los Angeles).

The slippers pictured here were purchased by Michael Shaw directly from Kent Warner, and in Shaw’s possession they remained until 2005 when, on loan to the Judy Garland Museum in Grand Rapids, Minnesota, they were stolen in the night.

The mystery of the stolen pair would last 13 years until they were recovered by the FBl in 2018 as part of a sting operation.

Now, they can be yours. Click the link in our bio to bid on history today!
