(Walt Disney Studios, 1940) Great collection of 17 original production drawings of Figaro from Pinocchio, showing the cat wearing his bib as he prepares to eat his supper. Accomplished in graphite and colored pencil on untrimmed 12 x 10 animation paper. Images measure from 3.5 x 3.5 to 5 x 4.25. In overall fine condition.
Figaro, Geppetto’s charming black-and-white cat, brings warmth and humor to the film through his expressive reactions and mischievous personality. Though loyal to his master, he often shows impatience toward Pinocchio and playful jealousy of the goldfish Cleo. Originally created as a supporting character, Figaro became so popular that Walt Disney later made him Minnie Mouse’s pet in other cartoons. A large and outstanding group of original production drawings of the beloved feline, all deriving from the same scene.
