DISNEY STUDIO ARTIST: JAMES ALGAR
12x9½ piece of original art of Goofy in a fireman's outfit done by the animator
Original Art unsigned, 12x9½. Numbered "124" at upper left and right and lower right
margins. Disney Studios animator James Algar drew this sketch circa 1936. A lost art:
because of the advent of computer-created cartoons, the original sketches used to make cells are
no longer used in creating cartoons. James Algar (1912-1998) was one of the three
animators who created Snow White's animal friends for Disney's first cartoon feature,
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. In 1937, Algar directed a cartoon short, The Sorcerer's
Apprentice, which became the basis for Fantasia. He later directed many of Disney's nature
films and eventually became a producer. Algar was named a Disney Legend in 1998, 64 years
after he was first named an animator. Binding holes at lower margin. Multiple notches at
lower edge. Lightly toned at edges. Otherwise, fine condition.
