Captain Hook (from 'Peter Pan', 1953)

Made in 1953, Walt Disney's Peter Pan was the studio's last ever animated feature film where all nine of the original core animators worked together; described as “Disney’s Nine Old Men” by Walt since their very first film, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937).

This original production 'cel' or celluloid would have been used in the original production process after an animators' original drawing was traced onto a sheet of transparent plastic and hand-painted in colour. It would have then been projected in front of a hand-painted background via a multiplane camera to create a minute yet crucial movement in the final film. Now mounted and framed, this piece is the perfect way to add a sophisticated and muted touch of Disney magic to your home. Match with another drawing from our Vintage Disney collection to create a perfect pair.
