Plot[]
Upset that there is no portrait or statue of him in the "World's Richest Men" room of the Duckburg Hall of Fame, Scrooge tries to get a portrait of himself painted by French artist Tooloose Laveck. Discovering that professional artists charge very high for their work, he opens a contest instead, offering a free trip to Paris to the winner, hoping that the sum of all the $1 participation fees will be enough to pay for the trip of the winner. Unfortunately, only Gladstone and Donald enter the contest…
