Walt Disney - 1 Original preliminary drawing - Silly Symphony - Merbabies - 1938

Original vintage production drawing from Merbabies (1938), an iconic Silly Symphony short produced by Walt Disney Studios. This authentic animation drawing represents a charming baby mermaid, part of a key underwater sequence from the film. Merbabies was originally developed under the working title Little Mermaids, before being renamed to avoid confusion with other fairy-tale adaptations. The short is celebrated for its poetic aquatic imagery and playful animation. Created during the Golden Age of Disney animation, this drawing was used directly in the production process. It is executed in graphite and red pencil on 12-field animation paper, typical of studio production at the time. Production number: 31, clearly marked. The artwork shows natural age-related toning consistent with genuine studio material from the late 1930s and remains in good overall condition.
