(Walt Disney Studios, 1928) Original production drawing featuring Mickey Mouse from Steamboat Willie, showing the iconic mouse's head and arms with drum mallets. Accomplished in graphite on untrimmed 12 x 9.5 animation paper, marked "254" in the lower right corner. Image measures 4.5 x 1.75. 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 famous debut of Mickey Mouse, and the first Disney cartoon to feature synchronized sound.
