original production animation layout drawing
green, red and blue pencil on 12.5" x 30" animation sheet, image size: 12" x 22"

This original animation background layout drawing of the general store where Aunt Sarah takes Lady to obtain a leash and muzzle was created by a Disney Studio artist in development of scene 72 of sequence 04.1 of Walt Disney's CinemaScope animated feature. In this scene the muzzled Lady dashes through the store, toppling a bird cage on her way to the exit; in the following scenes she is rescued by Tramp and their adventure begins. Taped to the left edge is the studio's layout sheet with production information filled in. "Prod. #2079 Seq. 04.1 Sc. 75" is handwritten in the left margin; camera notes appear along the bottom; and "Corrected" with date stamp of "Aug 27 1954" appears at lower right.
