It's Not Easy Being Giant
Wednesday Advertising Day.
Stiched together from a full paper sized ad from the back of a 1941 Philidelphia Americn Weekly, this is one of the most lush ads using Disney characters I have ever seen.

Down Mexico Way
Tuesday Comic Strip Day.
When I was looking to try and write some stories for the Dutch Donald Duck (the local Disney franchise), I downloaded a whole series of Jose Carioca Sundays to see if I could get a handle on him. The whole idea of a womanizer in a Disney setting is hard to do for me. Part of it was that I really like this earliest form of the character, which I am sharind here.

Mickey Mouse Funnies
Tuesday Comic Strip Day.
Here's some other stuff I came across while completing my favorite series. I love this late forties Mickey Mouse and I am informed that eventually it will be published in the Fantagraphics sries. I can't wait!

Come And Be Merry
Thursday Story Strip Day.
There may be story strip silent sequences out there, but I did not find any. Instead I have chosen to present today a longer run of Disney's Little Hiwatha. This sunday only silent gag strip ran for about three years under the Silly Symphonies banner and if I understand it corrctly, it was even considered as a feature film subject at the time. The text is by Dick Huemer and the art by Bob Grant, who also did the Merry Menagerie series of cartoons I so much like. With all the love that is given to Floyd Gottfredson's Mickey Mouse (and rightly so) I am surprised not more people are equally impressed by Grant's animated style of this strip. Maybe because it ran for so short or because the strip was later worked into the ground in the comics?
