When Mike Van Eaton mentioned to CartoonBrew a few days ago that he was preparing an outstanding auction to take place on May 14, he was not kidding. I have just seen the catalog and this will be the Disney / animation art auction of the decade. Too much good stuff to mention it all in one post so I will show selected elements over the next few days. CartoonBrew mentioned the letter from Walt to Ub (the center piece of the auction) but there is a LOT more to discover.

Believe it or not, the Herb Ryman section itself is 4-page long and filled with art I had never seen before.

The catalog will be online at http://www.profilesinhistory.com/ starting sometime in April.
