sekä myös Donalduksia, Paperinoja, Mikejä ja Mishkoja – mistä tässä on kyse? Erikielisistä sarjakuvalehdistä eri maista ja nimenomaan Aku Ankka- ja Mikki Hiiri -lehdistä ja niiden keräilystä luonnollisesti :) Enimmäkseen kaikki ovat virallisia Disney-julkaisuja, mutta vuosikymmenien aikana on monissa maissa vedelty mutkia suoriksi (kirjaimellisesti uudelleenpiirtämistä apuna käyttäen) eikä aina ole tullut mieleen, että piirroksilla ja hahmoilla on omistajaoikeutensa.
Tieto lisää tuskaa, mutta tiedon ja kokemusten jakaminen on hyödyllistä, näin vakaasti uskon. Siksipä laittelen tänne ajoittain kokoelmani koostumusta ja kuinka ynnä mistä lehtiä on löytynyt.
Jos joku on kiinnostunut laajentamaan omaa kokoelmaansa, kannattaa käväistä katsastamassa ylimääräiset lehteni huutonetissä http://www.huuto.net/hakutulos/sellernro/2116083
Summary in English:
I collect Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck comic books and/or magazines in different languages and from different countries. On my blog pages I tell the readers how I’ve found all the comic books in my collection. On the pages there are links to Pinterest (https://www.pinterest.com/timoniittyranta/) – there you can take a look at the cover illustrations of the comic books.
I have not managed to find all the existing language versions yet and also one country is missing. The missing language version is Kannada (India) and the missing country is Albania.. By clicking the links below you can see what they all look like. Although there may be some unknown publications still out there….

ddandmmcomicbooks - the blog 
Hello,
First of all, I’d like to say how much I love your blog and the idea you had, a long time ago now, of having the most complete collection possible of Disney comic books from different countries and languages.
Over the past few years, driven by the desire to discover how this culture is experienced in other countries, as well as friends who also own foreign magazines and this blog who push the idea to the extreme, I’ve also decided to start collecting foreign magazines, but to spice things off, since I love traveling, I’ve decided not to buy them on the Internet when it’s possible to find them locally (or when it’s too complicated, it must come from a country where I’ve already been). It slows down the progress of the international collection, but it makes really great, well-deserved travel souvenirs after finding the magazine you’re looking for after searching in multiple bookshops (for example, I went to 6 or 7 bookshops during a week-long trip to Lisbon to find one with only 4 Portuguese magazines), not to mention the preliminary research on the internet but you know that too well :D.
At the time of writing, I have magazines from 13 different countries (my native country France, Germany, Belgium, Denmark, Spain, United States, Italy, Norway, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, United Kingdom, which is the most recent, and Sweden).
For the whole month of August I’ll be in South Korea for the first time, and a new country means of course looking for a new local magazine!
Obviously, given the country and how rare they are there, it’s much harder to find them locally… That’s why, for several months now, I’ve been scanning the Internet to find them and have them delivered to my home or to a local address, or even hand-delivered.
I found two local marketplace websites on which I was lucky enough to find a dozen Korean magazines of which only 3 were listed on the Inducks database! But the bad news is that, unfortunately, they’re all out of stock :/ (I also have the contact of a person living in Korea who I contacted to help me with my research and who could help me ship the magazines to my address once I’ve found one).
Knowing that the trip starts very soon and that I think it’s almost impossible to find them in local bookshops as they’re too rare (or you can literally call me Gladstone, I remembered that you own a magazine from South Korea! However, I couldn’t find any information on the blog that might be useful in my research…
That’s why I decided to contact you to get some (or at least to learn more about these magazines ^^’).
Hopefully you’ll see this message in time to help me in my quest.
Thank you in advance,
Another collector from another country ;)

Good morning!
I am glad to hear that you’ve started also your own collection. Searching some new issues for collection is the second best part of this hobby – finding something is the best :)
Your idea of adding new issues to the collection by travelling sounds great, though (as you mentioned) it makes thing much harder. I also have connections in Korea and in many other countries, but very often they have not been able to find any copies at all. I guess finding the Indian language versions in India would be very difficult :)
My copy of the Korean Donald Duck came from another Finnish collector – he had an extra copy and I had a couple of rare language versions that he did not have. He had got the Korean version from another person who had been travelling in Korea some 20-30 years ago. So, unfortunately, I am not able to help you.
All the best and wishing you a nice trip and hoping you’ll be able to expand your collection there!
Kind regards,
Timo
