(Walt Disney Studios, 1941) Original production cel featuring Goofy from The Art of Skiing, showing him post-crash on the snowy ground with his poles hanging from the tips of his skis. The cel has been trimmed and applied to a hand-painted background as prepared by Courvoisier Galleries for sale, the lower right of which bears a pair of “WDP” stamps. The cel image measures 4.5 x 4.5, with a mat opening of 8.25 x 8.5. Double-matted to an overall size of 15.5 x 15.5; the reverse of the backing bears the original Disney Courvoisier Galleries label. In fine condition, with noticeable waving to the cel. The Art of Skiing was historically significant in the series of Goofy cartoons as it was the first to use the 'Goofy holler' sound effect, which has since appeared in many other films and cartoons.
