Andeby, as seen by Egmont |
Here is a clickable
map of Duckburg I found at the Norwegian website
Disney.no.,
in a special section about Andeby (Duckburg). It's from a
sticker map poster given as a gift in at least the Norwegian and Danish
weeklies Donald
Duck & Co. #1997-13, and Anders
And & Co. #1997-13, (I don't know about the other Egmont weeklies)
from March 1997. Unlike the first map of Egmont
did, this one includes Barksian references and
typically Egmont countries stories references, and only Duck characters
are included. The exact authors are unknown. It is in Norwegian,
so I'm going to translate it...
Egmont, for some reason, don't like to have Duckburg in the real world.
Italians, for instance, and Americans, have always seen Duckburg as a city
of the USA (and most of the time around California), but it hasn't been
so in Egmont countries...

translation from a Barks' "skunk oil factory" ("The

stories. Donald often works there.
** : Tullevold is the Norwegian
name of the soccer stadium in Duckburg, after Ullevaal Stadium in
Oslo

Here are the Barksian references :

Swamp of No Return";
- 6,18...: from Barks' "The
Status Seeker";
- 33......: from Barks' "Tracking
Sandy";

The Billionaire's Club and the Ritz Restaurant have been used more
than once by Barks and have become regular in comics nowadays.
