ALLITERATIONS, PART 1

There can be little doubt that Barks enjoyed inventing titles of two or three main words that started with the same letter or sound. He even did so many times when inventing new characters. Just think of Gyro Gearloose, Gladstone Gander, the Beagle Boys, and Cornelius Coot.

NB.: In this section you will probably miss the 1954-story commonly known as 'Seven Cities of Cibola', but it never received that title by Barks. Still, it may be speculated that he felt somewhat surprised when the film Seven Cities of Gold happened to be released the following year...
