Rare Walt Disney's Hand-Drawn Sketch of Donald Duck Sells for $12,000
A signed hand-drawn Walt Disney sketch of Donald Duck was auctioned tonight by Nate D. Sanders Auctions for $11,949.
In the early 1930's, Disney created Donald Duck to be Mickey Mouse's companion. Disney signed his name at the bottom of his pencil drawing of the beloved duck character. The sketch measures 5.5 by 8.5 inches.
Nate D. Sanders auction manager Michael Kirk remarked, "It's rare to find a Donald Duck illustration hand drawn and signed by Walt Disney himself. Disney famously delegated almost all animation work to his team of talented animators, making this piece very unique and collectible."
