It's the world's most famous autograph.
You've seen it everywhere.
Movies, TV shows, toys, books, theme parks around the world.
You name it - this name's stamped on it.
It's a signature worth $138 billion. A logo that defines the world of entertainment.
And as kids, parents and grandparents, it's a name we've all grown up with.
Whether you're young or old (or still young at heart)...
It's one of those rare autographs that means something to everyone.
Walt Disney: the most successful entertainer in history, and a defining figure of the 20th century.
Saved the best for last
Walt Disney's signature is surely the most recognisable in history.
And from a cultural point of view, one of the most important.
That's why an original hand-signed example is such a popular and desirable item for collectors to own.
It's one of the key autographs of the 20th century.
Unsurprisingly, this is the very last one I have in stock.
But it's also the best one.
Because you'll find it on this beautiful hand-painted animation cel.
A rare original Disney animation cel, personally signed by Walt Disney himself circa 1951.
A vintage Disney treasure
This is a rare original cel from the 1948 film Melody Time.
Painted and assembled by artists at Walt Disney Studios.
This cel features the ice-skating characters Joe and Jenny from the famous segment Once Upon a Wintertime.
The cel is professionally mounted and framed, in an impressive display measuring 39.3cm x 43.7cm (approx. 15.4" x 17.2").
And it features an excellent example of Walt Disney autograph
Large and boldly signed with an artist's pencil against the white border.
A superb example of Walt Disney's signature: the most famous autograph in the world.
Reserved for VIPs only.In terms of Walt Disney autographs, this is a real rarity.
Because he didn't sign animation cels for just anyone.
They were strictly reserved for close friends, and people he respected and admired.
Disney inscribed this cel to Anne Shelton, OBE (1923 – 1994), a British singer famous for entertaining Allied troops during WWII.
It's believed Disney met Shelton when she toured the U.S in 1951, and gave her with this cel in recognition for her wartime work.
The cartoon was created by Mary Blair, Walt Disney's personal favorite artist.
The most valuable Disney artist
The cel also has a personal significance to Disney.
Because One Upon A Wintertime was created by his favourite artist Mary Blair.
Today she's perhaps the most celebrated - and certainly the most collectible – artist in Disney history.
In 2020, two of her original paintings for Once Upon a Wintertime sold for almost $20,000 each in the U.S.
And in a major Disney animation auction just last week, 15 of the top 25 most valuable lots were Mary Blair artworks.
So this animation cel also comes with a superb artistic pedigree.
A beautiful piece of original animation art, signed by Walt Disney himself. Yours to own for just £11,995.
