(Walt Disney Studios, 1938) Original production drawing of Mickey Mouse from the classic short film Brave Little Tailor, attributed to animator Fred Moore and showing Mickey wearing his tailor outfit equipped with large scissors as he attempts to climb in a full-figure pose. Accomplished in graphite and colored pencil on untrimmed 12 x 10 animation paper marked "23" in the lower right corner. Character image measures 4.5 x 4.75. In fine condition.
This cartoon was an adaptation of the fairy tale The Valiant Little Tailor and cast Mickey Mouse in the title role, voiced by Walt Disney himself. It was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film in 1939, but lost to Disney's own Ferdinand the Bull. It is still considered one of Disney's greatest shorts, and in 1994 the film was chosen as the 26th greatest cartoon of all time by members of the animation field.
