Vibrant original hand-painted color cel set-up with six-character cel paintings used in Disney’s 1939 Academy Award winning production of The Ugly Duckling. The cel has been trimmed to the outline of the figures, as was customary when being prepared for presentation, and is set against what appears to be the original color background. The 9.5 x 8 cel depicts the ostracized duckling being shunned and is housed in its original cream 16.5 x 16.25 mat. Signed and inscribed on the mat in blue artist pencil, “To Johnnie Parsons, My Best, Walt Disney.” The original Courvoisier Galleries certificate of authenticity for the painting is affixed to the reverse and reads in part, “This is an original painting on celluloid, actually used in the Walt Disney Production of THE UGLY DUCKLING. It is one of a select few that have been released to art collectors. The remainder has been destroyed. Copyright 1938.” In very good to fine condition, with slight rippling and curling to figures, several dark stains to the upper right corner of the mat, and scattered lighter staining, mild toning to edges from previous display. A charming display from the film which happened to be the last entry in the Silly Symphony series.
