Comments: |
This story takes place some months after the Barks-classic "A Christmas for Shacktown" and shows how Gyro Gearloose helps Scrooge having his money back from the hole under the Money Bin. During this operation Little Helper is constructed from one of Donald's lamps to help examine the badger's hole where the toy-train used to pass in to Scrooge's money. |

Interesting facts: |
The basic idea of combining the 50th anniversary story for Gyro with a sequel to "A Christmas for Shacktown" was first suggested for Don Rosa by a certain Norwegian fan... Go to AC Sivebæk's The two worlds of Don Rosa to see the difference between the two versions of this story. |
