Self Control : Original Production Used Donald Duck Animation Drawing (Walt Disney, 1938)
This expressive original production drawing features Donald Duck in a tense moment from Self Control (1938), a classic short directed by Jack King. The film follows Donald as he struggles to stay calm despite an endless string of annoyances ruining his relaxing day. In this drawing, found near the 8:04 mark, Donald's frustration reaches a boiling point when the persistent woodpecker he had been chasing finally drops his stolen hat back onto his head-pushing him closer to another explosive tantrum. This drawing capture Donald's mounting rage with fantastic detail. His body is visibly tense as he fights to maintain control, embodying the character's legendary short temper. The drawing of Donald Duck is numbered in the lower right corner and bears a studio stamp from the art props department. With edge wear and age-related toning, this vintage drawing remain in good condition, a wonderful addition to any Disney animation collection!
The paper used by Disney studios in the 1920s-1930s contains a distinctive watermark, visible in one of the photos, which further attests to its authenticity.
