A Donald Duck Drawing Signed by Walt Disney

The drawing is listed with Raptis Rare Books of Palm Beach. In it, the irascible Donald Duck stands with his fists—birds have fists?—clenched in a posture of anger. The watercolor is well-executed and the signature of Walt Disney makes it even more desirable. (Disney did not make the drawing himself, of course. It is the work of a studio artist.)

 

The blue matte obscures the last letter of Disney's signature, which seems unfortunate, to say the least. There may be some matte burn around the edges. A new acid-free matte might be in order for the buyer, should there be any money remaining in the old bank account.
