Description

Rare original Dr. Seuss drawing intended for his book Bartholomew and the Oobleck

Original Dr. Seuss sketch of a large snowball careening down a mountainside toward a snow-covered cabin and its visibly distressed occupant, accomplished in pencil on an off-white 12.5 x 10.25 animation sheet by Dr. Seuss, who signs in the lower right. In fine condition. This rare finished Dr. Seuss drawing dates to circa 1949 and was originally intended for his book Bartholomew and the Oobleck, which follows the adventures of a young boy who must rescue his kingdom from a sticky green substance called 'oobleck.' An incredible original Dr. Seuss sketch that would make an ideal display piece.
