DISNEY'S "SLEEPING BEAUTY" ORIGINAL MALEFICENT/ DRAGON/SWORD PRODUCTION DRAWING

Description

AN ORIGINAL PRODUCTION DRAWING OF MALEFICENT AS DRAGON...WITH SWORD THROUGH HEART... FROM DISNEY'S CLASSIC "SLEEPING BEAUTY"
1959
THIS IS AN ORIGINAL  16 FIELD PENCIL DRAWING OF MALEFICENT AS THE DRAGON  FROM DISNEY'S CLASSIC FULL LENGTH FEATURE "SLEEPING BEAUTY".  THESE DRAWINGS WERE DONE BY THE STUDIO BEFORE THEY WERE TRANSFERED AND PAINTED ON TO CELS.   IT WAS HAND RENDERED IN GRAPHITE ON  ANIMATION DRAWING PAPER.  IT IS NUMBERED OPD # 99.  WHAT MAKES THIS ART EXCEPTIONALLY RARE AND COLLECTIBLE IS NOT JUST BECAUSE OF THE GREAT CLIMATIC MOMENT IN THE FINALE WHEN PRINCE PHILLIP'S SWORD HIT'S MALEFICENT'S DRAGON HEART, BUT IT IS ONE OF THE ONLY MOMENTS IN DISNEY ANIMATION WHEN WE ACTUALLY SEE BLOOD!  AND EVEN THE PENCIL DRAWING ISIS VERY VILE AND BRUTAL...SOMETHING NOT SEEN IN DISNEY!  IN VERY GOOD CONDITION!
"THOU SWORD OF TRUTH, FLY SWIFT AND SURE, THAT EVIL DIE AND GOOD                                                                   ENDURE!"
"never live with regret"...
Hello.  By way of introduction and for your information, I am TMQPOSTERS.
Everything that you will see on my EBay Selling List is from my personal private collection.  I started collecting NEW and VINTAGE ORIGINAL MOVIE POSTERS (especially GONE WITH THE WIND,  STAR WARS,
all SPIELBERG, DISNEY, ACADEMY AWARD WINNERS, BATMAN, LORD OF THE RINGS, HARRY POTTER,
CULT, CAMP, TRASH, ETC!!!) since I was a 27 year old in 1976 when I moved and lived in NYC.
All the posters (even the originally folded ones) have been rolled in tubes and stored in a temperature controlled environment from the time I purchased each one.
Needless to say, it is a diverse and eclectic collection of over 650 POSTERS.   I also collected ANIMATION ART, specifically ORIGINAL DISNEY HAND PAINTED PRODUCTION BACKGROUND PAINTINGS that went under camera in the filming of Disney movies.  I will not knowingly misrepresent the pieces I put on EBay.
All the photographs you see of my posters and art are ones that I have taken, not downloaded from other online sites. I will gladly answer all questions, discuss shipping, etc.
Whether you're a fan, collector, dealer, and/or looking for an investment piece this is a great opportunity.
The Movie and Theatre Poster and Animation Art I offer will be interesting, diverse, original and in many cases a rare opportunity for any collector.  Yes, some are Museum quality pieces, or obviously will be.
I am now 71 years old, downsizing, and divesting myself of this collection just as enthusiastically as when I started accumulating this wonderful brilliant trash. Thanks for your interest.
And wait till you see what will be "COMING SOON TO A THEATRE NEAR YOU!!!"
Too often in life we regret not doing things that we are able to do, for whatever reason, when we are presented with the opportunity to do so.  I say “Never live with regret”.
