Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (circa 1937)


WALT DISNEY STUDIO
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (circa 1937) 
original production animation model sheet
photostat on paper, dimensions: 11" x 14" + 1" strip at left
Since the early 1930s the Disney Studio has produced model sheets of its animated characters and/or atmosphere and concept art for circulation among artists and animators working in production of an animated film. Before the 1970s they were reproduced by a photostatic or printing process. They were made when a character or setting was in development and to help animators maintain a consistent look to the character throughout the film. This photostat model sheet titled "Production F1 / 'Snow White' Dopey Models" was made at the Disney Studio, likely soon after production of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. It is a second-generation print, made from a photostat for reference and future use; a strip of two punch holes was added at left, and it was kept in a studio binder. "Library of the Walt Disney Studio" is reproduced in the model sheet at upper left.
