Description
Floyd Gottfredson Mickey Mouse Sunday Comic Strip Original Art dated 4-29-34 (Walt Disney Enterprises, 1934). Mickey and Minnie actually get married in this incredible Sunday! Well, sort of, anyway -- babysitter Mickey tells his young audience a fanciful fairy tale which features a fantasy wedding scene between the two pie-eyed paramours. This particular week's installment was the last of the fabled "Rumplewatt the Giant" storyline, in which the rescued Butterfly Princess is revealed to be none other than Minnie, who then grants her hand in marriage to the brave little mouse. You couldn't ask for a better example of early Gottfredson art, and seeing Mickey and Minnie walk down the aisle is a special treat. The art has an image area of approximately 28" x 22.5", and is framed to an overall size of 37.5" x 32"; an old crease down the middle of the art has been lightly touched up with white, and the top half has been carefully rejoined to the bottom; otherwise, it appears in Excellent condition.Auction Info
