Walt Disney Studios - Fab Five (20th Century)

Goofy Original Publicity Drawing (Walt Disney, 1950/60s). Goofy is up to his usual antics in this wonderfully humorous piece of in-studio gag art, blissfully oblivious that he is about to find himself injured by a lion and a piano. This drawing, rendered in graphite with color pencil, was created by an artist who worked for the Disney Publications Department in the 1950s or 1960s. The department published comics, books, and magazines as well as publicity and merchandizing work. This lovely drawing is truly a unique piece of art, made just for laughs. It includes a caption on the top border that reads ‘Can you imagine all the extra trouble Mickey and Goofy would have if their motor nerves didn't help them get out of trouble?' We can, but this artist interpretation is even better! The drawing measures approximately 7.5'' x 12'' combined with the color pencil borders included. The 16-field paper exhibits light age-related toning, minor edge and handling wear, and a fold along the center of the page. This fantastic piece in Good to Very Good condition overall and is sure to put a smile on your face! HID09710052018 © 2024 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved
