"Mickey and Minnie must live happily ever after." - Walt Disney
The Story
Dreaming of his true love, Mickey Mouse imagines a fantasy wedding in which he and Minnie, dressed in bride and groom finery, celebrate their devotion and tie the knot in style.
The 44th Mickey Mouse cartoon produced, Walt Disney's Mickey's Nightmare premiered on August 13, 1932. It all starts with a glorious wedding in which Miss Minnie becomes Mrs. Mickey Mouse. Though Mickey's dream turns into a nightmare when he finds himself saddled with a houseful of rowdy kids, true love will, of course, prevail. Although these eternal sweethearts have never married, their fans clamored for such a ceremony (a novelty song entitled "The Wedding Party of Mister Mickey Mouse" was composed in 1931), and this fantasy sequence gave audiences a chance to see what such a vision of romance might be like. Even the happy couple's loyal pal, Pluto the Pup, is included in this dream of "happily ever after."
Based on a 1932 short this cel captures the only time Mickey and Minnie were ever married. "I Do" makes an exceptional Wedding or Anniversary gift and is a terrific momento for honeymooners or couples marking their "special day", as well as it is for other Disney Animation Art Collectors. "I Do" comes with a coupon for a complimentary engraved plague which can personalize the art work or memorialize a special occaision for a lifetime.
The Artwork
This hand-painted cel was produced in monochromatic shades to evoke the glorious black-and-white tones of the original cartoon. Produced by Walt Disney Ink and Paint Department, this cel features one ink color and five paint colors, and both the cel and the background were created by carefully consulting the original animation drawings and animation background paintings that were used in the production of the 1932 cartoon. The result is a charming portrait of what might have been if the wedding had actually taken place, uniting one of Hollywood's - and the world's - most beloved couples, Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse.
