Mickey Mouse, Silly Symphony

About the Item

Original French film poster for Mickey Mouse - Silly Symphony 1938. To-date this is believed to be the only known surviving example. The Silly Symphonies were a series of seventy-five short animations produced by Walt Disney, which started in 1929 and ended in 1939. The Silly Symphonies were originally intended as animated accompaniments to music. The early animations were in black and white, and then went on to use the newly invented Technicolor. The series also introduced Donald Duck to the big screen in The Wise Little Hen in 1934. It was a very popular series, which went on to launch a Disney media franchise, including a newspaper comic strip and a number of children's books. This poster is in excellent condition, with the colors remaining very bright with minor restoration to the folds. The poster is Linen-backed and conservation framed with UV plexiglass in an Sapele wood frame. The size given is before framing the framed size is 65 1/2 x 49 1/2 in. (165.9 x 125.1 cm) The poster would be boxed and sent out by Federal Express.

Antique Mickey Mouse & Minnie Mouse Train Hand Car by Disney & Lionel Circa 1934
By Walt Disney
Located in Incline Village, NV
Vintage Mickey/ Minnie Mouse Toy Wind-Up pre-war handcar (train car) circa 1934; by The Lionel Train Company in collaboration with Walt Disney Enterprises. The wind-up toy car features Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse pumping alternatively, up and down as if moving the car across the tracks or floor. It actually works by winding up the car by the winding stem with the original vintage clockwork key. When wound, place down on the floor or on train tracks (O Gauge) and the handcar will move across the floor while a bell chimes (see video attached to listing). It is okay to simply leave the key on the stem. The car is in original red hand paint with Mickey and Minnie in colors of black, white, green dress to Minnie; red outfit on Mickey; both have oversized original orange boots, while Minnie is sporting a wooden red hat. They both have their original tails. Both figures are 4 1/2" resin composition and in full paint, excellent coverage with very little paint lacking, if at all. All four legs are restored, which is the case with almost all examples. The car itself is metal and painted red with a gold manufacturing logo in the center stating "Mickey Mouse Handcar" copyright "Walt Disney"; "The Lionel Corporation, New York"; "Made in U.S. of America". "No. 1100". Great working; great looking iconic cross collectible antique toy...
