(Walt Disney Studios, 1938) Original production cel of Mickey Mouse from Brave Little Tailor, showing the character in his Middle Ages tailor's outfit as he explains his case in the king's hall. The cel is placed on a hand-painted custom prepared background. Image measures 3 x 4.25, with overall dimensions of 11.75 x 10. The cel is slightly trimmed to 11.75 x 9.75, and is marked "176" in the lower right corner. In very good to fine condition, with overall waviness.
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.
