Okay all you Donald Duck fanatics (and you really have to be a fanatic in this case - errr...Greg are you still out there?!)

Get your wallets ready and check out this interesting item for sale on ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/Fine-Art-Of-Walt-Di ... dZViewItem

For as little as $8,000 (yes, that is eight THOUSAND Aussie dollars!) you can own a signed copy of "The Fine Art of Walt Disney's Donald Duck" by Carl Barks. The amazing thing is this book is being sold in Sydney - not the US like most Disney ebay collectibles (so if you are successful, I can go around and pick it up for you! :) )

This is a super-rare book with only 1,875 copies EVER printed and despite demand, a normal unsigned version has never been produced. It includes colour images of 121 of the 122 colour paintings of Donald painted by Barks himself. It was produced in either a blue or maroon binding (the sale copy is in maroon) and it is rare that a copy is ever made available to buy.
