Wearing his red frock coat, top hat and pince-nez glasses, Scrooge McDuck cavorts with a fortune earned from hard work and a life of thrift.SCROOGE McDUCK:"I made [my money] on the seas, and in the mines, and in the cattle wars of the old frontier! I made it by being tougher than the toughies, and smarter than the smarties! And I made it square!"Scrooge McDuck was created in 1947 by Carl Barks for Walt Disney. The Scottish business tycoon was named after Ebenezer Scrooge from the novel A Christmas Carol and first appeared as a greedy miser in the story Christmas on Bear Mountain. The maternal uncle of Donald Duck transformed into a charitable hero, adventurer and philanthropist best known for his thrift. The Richest Duck in the World worked his way up the financial ladder from humble immigrant roots and regularly shared lessons in productivity as the source of wealth with grandnephews Huey, Dewey and Louie. “That’s the trouble with you young scallawags of today…You expect to start in at the top instead of working up from the bottom like I did!” This business card holder celebrates the short animated cartoon Scrooge McDuck and Money which was made by Walt Disney Studios in 1967. In this cartoon Scrooge McDuck tries to teach his grandnephews how to save money and depicts him as a duck who worked hard his entire life. The lessons of shining boots and serving as a cabin boy on a cattle ship to America lead to McDuck’s code of honor that the only valid way to acquire wealth is to “earn it square.” Forbes Magazine routinely lists Scrooge McDuck on its annual list of richest fictional characters with McDuck leading the pack with an estimated wealth of $65.4 billion in 2013. Due to the growth in gold that estimate is now $333 trillion. This vintage and rare Disney Scrooge McDuck Business Card Holder from Acme Studios is a must-have for any Disneyana collector.
