1936 Rare Disney Mickey Mouse Mortimer Original Production Animation Drawing Cel
MICKEY MOUSE & MORTIMER MOUSE PRODUCTION DRAWINGS WALT DISNEY STUDIOS GRAPHITE, BLUE, GREEN, & RED PENCILS ON PEG HOLE PAPER, 1936. Original production animation drawings of Mickey Mouse and Mortimer Mouse and Two Cars from "Mickey's Rival, " 1936, Walt Disney Studios; Red, blue, green, and graphite pencils on peg hole paper; Numbered H-141 and 5 lower right; Unframed. "Mickey's Rival, " 1936 is a Mickey Mouse cartoon short that was directed by Wilfred Jackson, produced by Walt Disney, and was released on June 20, 1936. The short stars a voice cast of Walt Disney as Mickey Mouse, Marcellite Garner as Minnie Mouse, and Sonny Dawson as Mortimer Mouse. "Mickey's Rival" is notable as being the animated debut of Mortimer Mouse. When Walt Disney was in the process of creating Mickey Mouse, he initially suggested the name of Mortimer Mouse. However, his wife Lillian felt the name sounded too pompous and suggested Mickey instead. Years later in 1936, the name Mortimer was finally used for a new character that was to be a rival for Mickey Mouse competing for Minnie Mouse's affections.

Mortimer only appeared in a single cartoon "Mickey's Rival, " 1936 and was never seen in animation again until the year 2000! The story of "Mickey's Rival" is the Minnie Mouse's old friend Mortimer Mouse drops in on Mickey and Minnie having a picnic. It doesn't take long for Mickey to become frustrated and angry at Mortimer's practical jokes, and Mickey's car is not happy either!

When Mortimer teases and enrages a nearby bull, he speeds away in his sports car; leaving Mickey and Minnie to deal with the bull. Fortunately Mickey and Minnie are aided by Mickey's car. This is a great pair of original production animation drawings of both Mickey Mouse and the rival of his girlfriend Minnie Mouse's affections, Mortimer Mouse. The large and detailed drawing of Mortimer Mouse has him backing up his sleek sport car into Mickey's poor old jalopy, pushing it into a tree. The drawing is an impressive eleven inches long!

The drawing of Mickey Mouse has him full figure, eyes open, and angry at Mortimer with all of his practical jokes and pranks going astray. A rare and very beautiful set of drawings from a 1930's Walt Disney short, and a great addition to any animation art collection!
