Walt Disney's "Lonesome Ghosts" (1937) is a great-looking classic animated short. This animation drawing of the ghosts racing for the telephone is somewhat weak. Two of the faces are seen from behind and off to the side. The central figure's face has been drawn a second time, as has the ghost's on the right. Given these problems, it's hardly an outstanding drawing, although it does have a nice sense of movement and energy. There are no major Disney characters here, probably contributing to the low sale price.

August 5, 2013 Update: In the actual short, the ghosts rush to the phone somewhat differently. Their motion includes floating and swooping rather than simply running.
