Description

Jack Frost (Celebrity Productions, 1934). One Sheet (27" X 40.5").
Ub Iwerks is the artist who originally gave shape and movement to Walt Disney's Mickey Mouse and as Disney's chief animator. Iwerks drew nearly every frame of the first Mickey cartoon, up to 700 drawings a day. Beginning in 1930, he ran his own cartoon studio called Celebrity Productions and distributed his films through MGM. The ComiColor cartoons utilized the Cinecolor process, a two-color system emphasizing red and blue much more so than green, giving the cartoons a watercolor effect. The posters from these animated shorts also boast beautiful color, like the one from Jack Frost seen in this lot. Touchup to the folds, pinholes in the corners, and two tears in the vertical fold near the bottom. Fine/Very Fine on Linen.
