Before Walt’s classic animated feature films such as "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs," before Walt’s revolutionary use of Technicolor, before the Wonderful World of Disney television show, before Disneyland and the Walt Disney World Resorts, before almost everything that Walt would build into his world-famous entertainment studio, there was a feisty, fun-loving little character that captured the world’s heart - Mickey Mouse! Here are more of the fun, action-filled black and white shorts from Mickey’s early days. Bonus materials include a featurette on ‘Mickey’s Portrait Artist’ and Disney legend, John Hench; rare Mickey collectibles and artifacts, and much more.
Editor's Note
A nostalgic tribute to one of America's most adored cartoon characters, MICKEY MOUSE IN BLACK AND WHITE chronicles the icon's early years. Tracking the films in chronological order from 1928 to 1935, this truly marvelous collection shows the progressive refinement of Mickey's distinguished look. Such artful classics as "The Barn Dance," "Mickey's Mechanical Man," "Playful Pluto," and "Mickey's Kangaroo" catch the carefree, big-eared guy before he paved the way for the entire Disney franchise.
