Signed book: The Adventures of Mickey Mouse. First edition. Philadelphia: David MacKay Company, 1931. Hardcover, 5.5 x 7.75. Boldly signed and inscribed on the dedication page, “To ‘Billy,’ With Best Wishes, Walt Disney.” The boards are slightly bowed. The spine benefits from professional restoration, with the page immediately inside the front cover replaced with a copy by the book restoration expert. The corresponding page inside the back cover was also professionally replaced, creating a solid book, with some mirroring of the inscription and signature, otherwise fine condition. The restoration did not affect the page signed by Walt Disney nor any of the other interior pages. Despite these physical flaws and repairs, the signed page remains an exceptionally bright and colorful example. Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Phil Sears.
