Fabulous early vintage matte-finish 8 x 10 Clarence Sinclair Bull portrait of Disney smiling genuinely for the camera, beautifully signed in fountain pen, “Sincerely, Walt Disney.” Double matted and framed to an overall size of 13 x 15. In fine condition, with a couple minor scattered light surface marks and creases.
Bull was MGM’s chief photographer for more than 40 years. In the early 1930s, he captured a series of photos of Disney, including the famous image of Disney with a shadow reflection of Mickey Mouse. It is likely that this portrait originated from around that same period. In the well-preserved photo offered here, Bull has successfully captured all of the warmth for which Disney and his creations have become famous. Rarely seen of this era…and in such superb condition!
