Description

The Autograph Hound Pair of Original Donald Duck Production Drawings (Walt Disney, 1939). This delightful pair of vintage production drawings features Donald Duck in a pivotal moment from The Autograph Hound (1939), a colorful and star-studded Technicolor short directed by Jack King. Throughout the film, Donald has been hounding Hollywood's biggest stars for autographs-interacting with the likes of Greta Garbo, Mickey Rooney, Sonja Henie, Henry Armetta, and the Ritz Brothers-all while evading a persistent studio security guard. At last, the tables turn in this key scene, found at the 5:37 timestamp, as the guard grabs Donald by the scruff and pulls him through a battleship porthole set piece, shouting triumphantly, "NOW, I got ya!" These expressive drawings capture the moment of Donald's comedic defeat, rendered in graphite with colored pencil on 12-field, 5-peghole animation paper. The short featured the talents of legendary Disney animators Ward Kimball and Shamus Culhane, both of whom contributed to Donald's distinctive personality and timing. With minor handling wear and age-related toning, these drawings are in vintage Good condition-a rare and humorous pair that showcases Donald at his animated best and highlights the Golden Age of Disney shorts.
