Description
Pluto Pup Goes to Sea Little Golden Book #D30 Front Cover Illustration by Yale Gracey Original Art plus Published Book (Walt Disney/Simon & Shuster, 1952). Mickey takes Pluto to the dock, where the dog slips onto a ship to be a life-saving guard dog in this cute children's storybook. Here is the original artwork for this book's front cover by Disney artist Yale Gracey (1910 - 1983), known for his layouts, backgrounds, and as a writer; he worked on films like Pinocchio, The Three Caballeros and Fantasia. Mr. Gracey later became a Disney Imagineer; the Haunted Mansion character Master Gracey is named in his honor. The large cover image of Mickey Mouse and Pluto is painted with gouache with color pencil shading on a sheet of 12" x 15.5" illustration board with an approximate image size of 10.5" x 13.25". The title lettering is included on an acetate overlay, and a partial onionskin overlay details the color and title arrangement. A first-printing "A" copy of the published book is included. The art is in Very Good condition with minor outer border handling and edge wear.More information about Walt Disney Studios - Fab Five. See also: Fab Five, Disney's Fab Five Artist.
