The Back to the Klondike paintings
 
»Back to the Klondike« (FC 456/2) was, without doubt, one of the most memorable Scrooge stories and revealed not only the roots of his wealth, but also some soft streaks in his personality. Barks created 4 oil versions of the cover and depicted its female protagonist, Glittering Goldie, in 4 additional paintings - not to mention the many other variations of the gold-rush theme, with or without Disney characters, which accompanied his career as a painter.
