Vintage Disney Shorts
Original Animation Production Cels from 1950s-1960s


The Disney studio actively produced short cartoons on a regular basis until about 1956 when the frequency of these animated shorts dwindled. Donald and Goofy were the biggest stars. Important newcomers in this era were Chip & Dale, a pair of rascally chipmunks often pitted against Donald Duck in all sorts of adventures. During this time period, the classic Silly Symphony series was replaced by one-shot cartoons such as Lambert the Sheepish Lion.

Below you will find a classic selection of animation cels from this period of Disney animated shorts. Please be our guest and browse through our Disney animation art.

Very slight paint separation in her hair, legs and each white ball on her shoes.
The cel also shows slight evidence of dirt buildup, and the price of the piece has been adjusted accordingly.
