Hello Spencer,
Happy New Year.
Thank you for your appraisal inquiry with Mearto. The item presented appears to be a graphite drawing by Carl Barks (American, 1901 - 2000) titled "The Pied Piper," circa 1979. The image was the cover image for a book by Barks titled "Animal Quackers." The estimate provided is based on recent auction estimates and results of comparable drawings and preliminary sketches by Barks. The estimate is contingent on a full condition report. Please note asking or dealer prices may vary. Thank you and please take care.
