The Gilded Man - 1952 Synopsis:
Donald travels to British Guiana in order to
trace down a valuable stamp and he finds it on an
undelivered letter. But it has to be delivered
first...
Comments:
Barks placed his ducks in British Guiana to
enable them to meet El Dorado, the legendary
figure of a gilded man. However, Barks was
mistaken when assuming that the figure - which
was said to be the leader of the Chibcha Indians
- was from the modern British Guiana;
the figure is supposed to come from Guiana, an
enormous area which originally covered all of the
northeast South America from coast to coast.
