Description
Modern Inventions Donald Duck Animation Drawings Group of 3 (Walt Disney, 1937). "Your hat, sir." And just why is Donald wearing a silk top hat you might ask? A very persistent robot butler! Perhaps in a nod to the many World's Fairs which were still in vogue at the time, this short was set at "The Museum of Modern Marvels." Inside the museum, Donald is continuously outsmarted by a slew of sassy robots, all utterly devoted to duty. Unfortunately, some of the kinks remain to be straightened out... As Donald admires the exhibits, the Robot Butler interrupts each of Donald's reveries with his signature "Your hat, sir." This short was released on May 29, 1937 and was directed by Jack King. Carl Barks, who probably knew Donald better than anyone else at the studio, wrote the story. Donald stands nearly 4.5" tall in this sequence of three original animation drawings. He is rendered in graphite and colored pencil on 12 field, 5-peghole animation paper. Donald wears a top hat here - and his hats become increasingly outlandish as the film continues. (The robot butler insists upon always taking his hat.) Donald is somehow able to make a succession of different hats appear - after the robot snatches them away. Drawings are in Fine condition.Auction Info
