(Walt Disney Studios, 1946) Original production cels featuring Mickey Mouse and either Chip or Dale from the animated short film Squatter's Rights, signed on the mat in brown crayon by Walt Disney. The cels have been trimmed and applied to a gorgeous background as prepared by Courvoisier Galleries for sale. Images measure 4.5 x 4.5 (Mickey) and 2.25 x 2.5 (chipmunk), with a mat opening of 9.5 x 7.5. This piece is also framed to an overall size of 17.25 x 16.25 and has the original Disney Courvoisier Galleries label on the reverse, which reads, in part, "This is an original painting on celluloid, actually used in the Walt Disney Production of Squatter's Rights. It is one of a select few that have been released to art collectors. The remainder have been destroyed." In fine condition, with light mottled toning to the mat. An exceptional example, starring Disney's most famous character. Accompanied by a full letter of authenticity from PSA/DNA.
