Walt Disney Animation Crew INK & PAINT Department SIGNED Christmas Card BAMBI

Description: Walt Disney Animation Crew INK & PAINT Department SIGNED Christmas Card BAMBI Treasures from a Retired Disney Animation Crew Member ... presented exclusively by Saturday's Toys Item: An original hand-made and personally signed Christmas card issued from the historic team of the Walt Disney Studios Ink & Paint Department Date: likely 2011 or 2017 (during re-release of the film on DVD; exact year, unconfirmed) Artist: Walt Disney Ink & Paint Department Description: Features a hand-made holiday greeting from the "final four" who still worked at the Ink & Paint department as the art form was largely being replaced with outsourcing and/or computer animated production. Card was mounted with a digital print of Bambi in the thicket, surrounded by the new leaves after a rain. Reverse side of the card features their holiday greeting: "Wishing You Peace This Holiday Season, and Always." Apparently, the card wasn't authorized for distribution, until an "Ink & Paint" label was added at the top edge of the card. Cards were then sent to colleagues throughout the Walt Disney Studios as well as within the broader animation industry. There is a slight curl to the card that has developed over time; likely the result of changes to the adhesive mounting through the years.
