Indexer Notes

Art submitted on January 10, 1952. "Barks has said that this story 'was inspired by the desert which is just over a range of hills from San Jacinto [Calif.]. I've sweated through heat waves and wind storms generated by that desert so many years it is no longer fun.' (October 14, 1969, letter to Winston Ljungdahl)." Notes and synopsis by Michael Barrier from "Carl Barks and the Art of the Comic Book" (M. Lilien, 1982).
