(Walt Disney, 1940). Original gag drawing of legendary Disney cartoonist Carl Barks attributed to Disney draughtsman and animator Ken Hultgren, accomplished in red artist pencil on an untrimmed 12.5 x 15.5 animation paper, which pictures Barks dressed in a tutu as a ballerina, a parody of the paintings by Edgar Degas; the drawing emphasizes Barks' signature big nose, a common trait of the portraits drawn of him at the time—Barks suffered from sinus issues due the the faulty air conditioning at the Disney studio. In very good to fine condition, with a horizontal fold, creasing to corners, and edgewear.
