Item Description
Ferdinand Horvath was a story sketch artist at Disney from 1934 to 1937 who brought a European style to Disney animated projects. He worked on many Disney shorts and did preliminary work on "Snow White And The Seven Dwarfs." Offered here are three 10x12" sheets of animation paper, each w/additional cut-outs featuring Horvath's original designs featuring tiny baker characters from an unknown project. Each has been done in lead pencil w/full colored pencil coloring/accents, giving each character a finished appearance. Each drawing has been signed by Horvath, his tiny name appearing at the bottom of each. A few have been dated "1940." Baker characters are shown w/large spatula (two different characters), carrying sack of flour, w/rolling pin and dough, stretching dough, w/tray of cookies, two characters loading flour into twisted machine which spits out fully formed pretzels, rolling dough and carrying large pot. Cut-outs have moderate aging from glue used to attach them to sheets, which have lt. handling wear/aging. Fine to VF overall. Wonderful expressive images by a legendary animator.
