Walt Disney (1901-1966), signed 9 ¼ ” x 11 ½ ” Mickey Mouse Sketch. Boldly signed in black ink and inscribed best wishes. Mickey Mouse is the most popular character of Walt Disney’s animated cartoons and the most popular cartoon in the world. Walt Disney began his first series of fully animated films in 1927, featuring the character Oswald the Lucky Rabbit. When his distributor appropriated the rights to the character, Disney altered Oswald’s appearance and created a new character that he named Mortimer Mouse; at the urging of his wife, Disney rechristened him Mickey Mouse. The growing popularity of Mickey Mouse and his girlfriend, Minnie, however, attested to the public’s taste for the fantasy of little creatures with the speech, skills, and personality traits of human beings. (Disney himself provided the voice for Mickey until 1947.)
