Amusing vintage matte-finish 10 x 8 photo of Disney pictured with a beaver, presumably as a publicity stunt for the release of the 1950 short film In Beaver Valley, signed and inscribed in black felt tip, "To Joe, Best wishes, Walt Disney.” In fine condition, with some creasing to the upper left corner. Accompanied by a full letter of authenticity from PSA/DNA. A truly uncommon signed image relating to one of Disney's much adored nature documentaries from the True-Life Adventures series. In Beaver Valley won the Oscar for Best Live Action Short Subject, Two-Reel at the 23rd Academy Awards.
