A Courvoisier Galleries cel from Walt Disney's "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" (1937) features Doc, Sneezy, and Bashful. It remains "in fine condition" more than eighty years after the film's release, with some separation of the paint noted on Doc's hat. The auction estimate of $3,000+ might be a tad optimistic, but it is a conceivable hammer price on a good day. Bidding on this piece rose to at least $1650 at RR Auction, but the item is not listed as sold, so most likely the reserve was not met. An overoptimistic auction estimate should not excuse an overoptimistic reserve price.
