Description

Disney Donald Duck Original Production Drawing from Orphan's Benefit 1934 Reciting Mary had a little lamb 42 seconds in, Donald Duck makes his first appearance in a Mickey Mouse short as the performer of the classic nursery rhyme "Mary had a little lamb" in this historic piece! The Burt Gillett-directed short Orphan's Benefit featured four different performers trying to entertain a theater full of orphan mice with piano, operatic singing, dance, and Donald's few stubborn attempts at reciting a nursery rhyme. The 12 field 2-peghole animation drawing shines a spotlight on the classic, sought-after long-billed Donald Duck after he finally loses his patience. The mice want nothing more than to heckle him, and, after trying and failing again and again, Donald decides to take matters into his own hands. The drawing is full figure and rendered in graphite. Overall page size is 12 x 9.5 and comes unframed
