GOUACHE ON CEL, 1963

Description:

For sale is a very rare, eyes open original hand painted production cel of Mad Madam Mim in Beautiful Woman form, from \"The Sword In The Stone,\" 1963. Numbered 55 lower right and set on a lithographic background; Unframed.

Madam Mim is the villain in the Walt Disney 1963 film \"The Sword In The Stone,\" based on T. H. White\'s novel by the same name. Mim was voiced by Martha Wentworth a veteran actress with a long radio history dating back to the 1920\'s. She was the voice of several Disney characters in \"101 Dalmatians\" including Nanny; and Mim was her final credited role. Madam Mim was animated by two of Disney\'s greatest animators Milt Kahl (who also designed the character, refining storyboard sketches from animator Bill Peet), and Frank Thomas. Kahl animated her first appearance in the film and her initial interaction with Arthur, while Frank Thomas oversaw her famous \"Wizards\' Duel\" with Merlin.

This cel is from the first appearance of Mim, animated by Kahl; and occurs when Wart (soon to be King Arthur, but at the moment having been transformed into a bird by Merlin), accidentally falls down Mim\'s chimney. In order to impress Wart and prove she is more powerful a wizard than Merlin, Mim sings the \"Mad Madame Mim Song.\" This cel is from the part of the song when she transforms into a beautiful woman and sings the following lyrics:

\"I can be beautiful, lovely and fairSilvery voice, long purple hairLa la la la, la la la la laLa la la la laLa la la la la la laBut it\'s only skin deepFor Zim zaberim zimI\'m an ugly old creepThe magnificent, marvelous, mad, mad, mad, mad Madam Mim!\"Measurements:Madam Mim: 8\" x 3 3/4\", Image 11 1/4\" x 15 1/4\"Certificate of Authenticity/Money-Back Guarantee:A full color Certificate of Authenticity and written Money-Back Guarantee is provided for this lot from Untitled Art Gallery, LLC.
