Comic Book

The 1952 comic book Walt Disney’s Donald Duck and the Gilded Man introduced a generation of young readers to the story of the One-Cent Magenta. It features Donald and nephews Huey, Dewey, and Louie traveling to British Guiana in search of the elusive stamp. They find it among the treasures hoarded by El Dorado—the fabled golden man of South America—and are handsomely rewarded by a wealthy collector.
