Description

CINDERELLA’S MICE JAQ & GUS WALT DISNEY CLASSICS 1970’s LITHO PRINT CEL-1970’s!
For That Special Cinderella Collector!
You Are Bidding On A Delightful Cinderella’s Mice, Jaq And Gus Walt Disney Classics Lithograph Print Cel that was sold exclusively at Disneyland during the 1960’s and 1970’s!
These wonderful Walt Disney Classics pieces of artwork were sold at Disneyland Matted With a label on the back that read: Released Exclusively At Disneyland Walt Disney Classics This Art Work Has Been Authentically Reproduced From Selected Originals Used In A Walt Disney Production.

This fun-loving little band of pawky Mice became the major supporting actors within Disney’s 1950 release of Cinderella which was the first Animated Full-length film since 1942. This wonderful Walt Disney’s Classics Piece was framed under glass with a backing soon after purchase which has protected it for years!
The movie was perfectly cast in terms of animation. Marc Davis and Eric Larson drew the title character, Frank Thomas animated the stepmother, Ollice Johnston did the comic stepsisters and Milt Kahl was responsible for the King, the Duke as well as the Fairy Godmother. There was no better animator to take on Lucifer the cat, and the mice characters than Ward Kimball
By the late 1940’s, there had been numerous designs and concepts for the animated mice by Story Artist, Bill Peet. So how on earth would you go about creating fresh looking personalities for these rodents? Ward Kimball polished these concepts for full animation and animated them with his sense of zany timing and inventive acting. Everyone of the poses for Jaq and Gus show the energy and characteristics of a real mouse. Ward’s free-thinking as an animator provided him the opportunities to express his own creativity in the midst of a larger story. Kimball was also in charge of Lucifer the cat, and he gave that character one of his best efforts, sending the feline into a spasm of excitement during his search for the mouse Gus Gus hidden beneath a teacup.
As the archnemesis of the mice, Lucifer was deliciously evil and unapologetically mischievous. Walt Disney himself found inspiration for Lucifer’s pillow-like body in Kimball’s family cat during a visit to his home. Kimball’s band of Cinderella’s mice, Jaq, Gus, Suzy, Perla, Blossom, Luke, Mert and Bert become the most popular characters of the film!
This Whimsical Walt Disney Classics Framed & Matted Piece Measures 12 3/4” tall x 14 1/2” wide. The viewable image measures 7 1/2” tall x 9 1/2” wide.
The image and mat are in excellent condition since they have been protected by the frame and glass. The original frame does show slight wear due to age. Overall, This Piece Is in Excellent Condition for being about 50 Years Old!
We are willing to work on the price for this item, therefore we have listed it as a BUY-IT-NOW item, but you also have the opportunity to MAKE-AN-OFFER!
We found this piece as we were going through the items that we have collected over the past 45 years! Take a look at our “OTHER ITEMS” and then mark our “Ebay Store” as one of your favorites. We will continue to add more Disney Memorabilia Items often!
