(Walt Disney Studios, 1940) Original production drawing featuring Blue Fairy from Pinocchio. Accomplished in graphite on untrimmed 12 x 10 animation paper. Image measures 11 x 9. In fine condition, with some light creasing to left side of sheet. The Blue Fairy was animated by Jack Campbell from live-action footage of Marge Champion and voiced by Evelyn Venable. Giving his animators strict instructions to avoid a ‘glamour girl’ appearance for the Blue Fairy, after several revisions the final product, possibly inspired by Jean Harlow, retained certain qualities Walt had initially wished to avoid, but he was pleased with the final result.
