Description from the seller

Gladstone Gander is a fictional character from Disney comics and cartoons, created by Carl Barks in 1947. He made his comics debut in “Long-Tongued Donald,” in Walt Disney's Comics and Stories No. 88, published in 1948.

He has appeared as a main or supporting character in thousands of comic stories produced in various countries around the world, as well as in a few cartoons. In the Disney universe, he is Donald Duck’s cousin, known for being a lucky and snobbish duck.

Gladstone was thus conceived as Donald’s foil, the rival who thwarted his attempts to outdo others, always ready to raise the stakes in their contests because he was even more of a braggart than Donald. In “Long-Tongued Donald,” he is the well-dressed cousin with slicked-back curls who turns up at Donald’s house to take it over, based on a bet they had made months earlier about Donald’s swimming prowess. At first, Gladstone is not portrayed as particularly lucky: he is depicted as a lazy, arrogant dandy who lives by his wits and competes with his cousin Donald to see “who can tell the biggest whopper.” Even so, he makes no secret of a certain greed and tendency to cheat, making him an antagonist in every sense.
