By contrast, the comic narratives often took several months to unfold over the course of the daily strips. An animated Mickey Mouse short was just that - short. While many of the early animated cartoons are undeniably entertaining and beautiful, they were all extremely limited in a technical sense. While many of the comic strip’s plot lines were often related to the animated shorts, the comic quickly established itself as its own entity, owing this in large part to both the format and the brilliance of the writers and artists working on it. Gottfredson continued working on the strip all the way until 1975.
While early strips were written by Disney, drawn by Iwerks, and inked by Win Smith, all three jobs were given to a young cartoonist named Floyd Gottfredson following the departure of Iwerks and Smith in 1930. After being featured in several animated shorts, Disney decided to create a newspaper comic strip featuring Mickey Mouse, this period of time of course being the golden age of newspaper comics. To begin with a bit of history, Mickey Mouse was created at Walt Disney Studios in 1928 by Walt Disney and Ub Iwerks. Between this tragic business decision and Mickey’s creation and introduction in 1928, however, lie some of the greatest comics ever written. Walt Disney made the conscious decision at a certain point to make the mouse a fairly one-dimensional character because he was quickly becoming less of a character and more a symbol for the ever growing Disney corporation. His fame and popularity have grown immensely over the years since his creation, but despite his ubiquity, relatively few know very much about what makes him tick which is in large part a result of Mickey’s massive success. Mickey Mouse is an interesting character to analyze. This bold hero that I had so lovingly (albeit crudely) rendered was none other than who is arguably the most classic cartoon character of all time, Mickey Mouse, circa 1933. Featured prominently on one of the pages was a tracing of a ferocious dogfight from a beloved childhood comic involving an intrepid pilot trying to take down a villainous pirate airship.
MAIL PILOT 1933 ANIMATOR MOVIE
The title for the film changed over the years: "Mickey Mouse, the Mail Pilot," "The Mail Pilot," "Mail Pilot." There is a black & white reproduction of this sequence (called the "mail must go through" sequence) in the 1934 edition of "Mickey Mouse Movie Stories." Similar pose to SeqID-0072 Acquired 1992.
Being carried by lots of “ Goofoid” characters. Mickey and Minnie sitting in the frame of the plane. Similar pose to 1992 serigraph SeqID-0071 Acquired 1990. Pencil sketch of Mickey and Minnie riding in a plane carried by “ Goofoid” characters. While interesting, I think the pencil I have shows more energy and "fun" than the image Disney chose to immortalize as a serigraph!įrom “Mail Pilot” (1933). Frankly, I'm not sure why Disney didn't use a frame closer to mine for the serigraph.
