Description
Mickey's Service Station Mickey and Car Tire Wheel Animation Drawings Sequence of 8 (Walt Disney, 1935). Mickey struggles trying to change a tire from gangster Pete's car, in this wild sequence of eight original 12 field 2-peghole animation drawings. This lively Ben Sharpsteen-directed short was released to theaters on 3/16/35; it was the first short that starred Mickey, Donald Duck, and Goofy together as a comedy team, and also one of the last black and white Mickey shorts. In these drawings, we see a frustrated Mickey with a tire wheel stuck to his backside. Most images are in graphite and yellow pencil. The first drawing is noted as 91, and can be seen at the 2:42 mark in online viewings; the drawing gas an approximate image size of 3.75" x 3.25". Next is the drawing 101, image size 3.5" x 2.75, followed by 118, image size 3.5" x 2.75"; drawing 125, image 3.75" x 3"; drawing 149, image 5" x 3"; drawing 177 (in graphite only), 2.75" x 2.75"; and drawing 251, where Mickey finally breaks free (at the 3:05 mark), image size 4.5" x 5.75" with red motion lines in addition to the graphite and yellow penciling. A graphite drawing noted as 10A shows only the tire wheel, image size 1.75" x 1". This last drawing had extra pegholes added to shift the image to the right. Overall condition is Very Good with minor handling and mild age-related paper toning.More information about Walt Disney Studios - Fab Five. See also: Fab Five, Disney's Fab Five Artist.
