Disclose Notes: The next-to-last Donald Duck ten-pager by Carl Barks.

One of the stories referred to collectively as "The Brittle Mastery of Donald Duck", a series of stories by Carl Barks where Donald is the-best-there-is at something... until he's not, usually involving some disaster.

Carl Barks gives Daisy a complete redesign in this story. It sort-of holds-over into his final Donald Duck ten-pager "The Not-So-Ancient Mariner" in Walt Disney's Comics and Stories (Western, 1962 Series #312 (September, 1966).
