Description
Complete Story of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs Seven-Dwarf Preliminary Storybook Illustration by Disney Legend Manuel Gonzales (Walt Disney/Harper and Brothers, 1937). Disney created a beautifully illustrated storybook for Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, titled The Complete Story of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs and published by Harper and Brothers, to accompany the release of the film. This lot features a 12 field 5-peghole preliminary graphite illustration by Disney Legend Manuel Gonzales (1913 - 1993) that is as beautiful and expressive as the feature itself. The illustration features all seven of the dwarfs: Doc, Bashful, Dopey, Happy, Sneezy, and Sleepy all light-heartedly jesting at poor Grumpy's characteristic pessimism. Gonzales is known for his many contributions to Disney comic strips, like the Sunday Mickey Mouse strip and daily Scamp strip, but he also created stunning publicity artwork for Disney shorts and features. This preliminary illustration is marked for page 41 and measures a large 11" x 6" on the page. A picture-perfect portrait of all seven dwarfs! A gem to have in any Disney collection, the lot is in Very Good condition with light edge and handling wear and faint age-related toning.From the Disney Legend Manuel Gonzalez Archive.
