Walt Disney Studios - Original Animation Art Ce
Walt Disney Studios - Original Animation Art Cel and Background for Mickey Mouse Cartoon (Walt Disney, n/a). A beautiful panoramic beach scene is the locale for this great animation cel/long shot background art featuring everyone's favorite mouse, Mickey. We wish we could tell you the name(s) of the artists involved, or even the name of the cartoon this appeared in, as that information has been lost to us. We can tell you that this is the classic "round-ears" Mickey Mouse of the late 1930s, taking a dip in the crystal blue waters on the nitrate cel, possibly from the 1937 short "Hawaiian Holiday". The lush background may or may not be from the same film. At any rate, the two pieces together make a magnificent presentation from the best-loved animation studio in America. The large pan background, rendered in delicate watercolors, measures approximately 27" x 9", and is in fantastic condition, with only a few minor blemishes. The cel overlay is approximately 10" x 9"; it appears to be a little wavy, but with nice color, and no chipping or flaking of the paint. If you love the Mouse, you gotta get him in the house! Important notice: Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 200-250 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. In most cases the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay live bids. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 20% Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid.
