A "Squatter's Rights" Production Cel Signed by Walt Disney

A production cel from the animated short "Squatter's Rights" (1946) signed by Walt Disney depicts a wintry scene that did not actually appear on screen, at least not in this manner. The characters Mickey Mouse and Chip did not appear together in the actual shot. The non-production background is meant to show off the two character cels to best advantage, but it has nothing to do with the action of the movie.

Note:  I am unable to locate the movie still that corresponds to the cel of Chip—or is it Dale?—in this animated short. Does it indeed come from "Squatter's Rights" or is it possibly from some other production?


The production cel is still available for sale at the time of this posting.
