Vintage matte-finish 9 x 7 photo of Disney on horseback dressed as an Argentinian gaucho, signed and inscribed in fountain pen “To Bill Branch, with my best wishes, Walt Disney.” Matted and framed to an overall size of 14.5 x 12. In fine condition, with some mild rippling and last few letters of signature a shade or two light due to decreased ink flow. In 1941, Disney and some of his artists from his studio set out on a tour of South America. The trip was part of the US State Department’s Good Neighbor program, intended to foster goodwill in South America to prevent the spread of Nazism in the Western Hemisphere. Walt and his artists visited several countries, finding artistic inspiration that would result in the films Saludos Amigos and The Three Caballeros.
