(Walt Disney Studios, 1938) Original production drawing featuring Cab Calloway from Mother Goose Goes Hollywood, showing the tuxedoed bandleader in a full-length pose. Accomplished in graphite on untrimmed 12 x 10 animation paper, marked "12" in the lower right corner. Image measures 3.25 x 5.25. In fine condition.
Featuring appearances by the likes of the Marx Brothers, Clark Gable, Spencer Tracy, Laurel and Hardy, W. C. Fields, and many others, the cartoon was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Animated Short, but lost to Disney's own Ferdinand the Bull. Due to its stereotypical racial overtones, it is seldom seen in its entirety.
