(Walt Disney Studios, 1928) Two original production drawings of Mickey Mouse from Steamboat Willie: one showing the iconic mouse from the waist up with raised drum mallets, the other showing just his legs and torso. Accomplished in graphite on untrimmed 12 x 9.5 animation paper, marked "369" and "60" in the lower right corners. Images measure 3.5 x 5 and 2.5 x 2.75. In fine condition. During a wonderful musical sequence, Mickey cheerfully opens a bull's mouth to play percussion on the oversized teeth. A remarkably early and desirable production drawing from the debut of Mickey Mouse, and the first Disney cartoon to feature synchronized sound.
