An original production drawing of Mickey Mouse from Puppy Love (1933), created at Walt Disney Productions during the early golden age of American animation. The drawing shows Mickey holding a bouquet of flowers, rendered in graphite on studio animation paper with the charm and fluidity of 1930s Disney linework.
The piece originates from one of the earliest sound-era shorts to feature both Mickey and Minnie, directed by Wilfred Jackson under Walt Disney's supervision. The drawing represents the pre-colour animation process that defined Disney's rapid evolution from simple gag cartoons to emotionally expressive storytelling — every pencil line hand-drawn by a studio animator as part of the frame-by-frame sequence photographed onto 35mm film.
A one-of-a-kind artefact from Disney's formative years, and a rare survivor from the film that helped cement Mickey and Minnie as cultural icons.
