Description

Walt Disney’s Bambi - The Sketchbook Series, Limited Collector’s Edition # 1979 / 3000 with Certificate of Authenticity.
This is a beautiful book we’ve had in our collection for about 15 years. As I recall, we bought it from someone who put a price tag on the front and slightly damaged the outer cover. The book itself appears to be in great shape.
About the Book:
Walt Disney's Bambi: The Sketch-Book Series Signed Numbered Slipcase Edition #1979/3000 (Applewood Books, 1997). With more than 75 pencil sketches from the original animator's hand and 12 full-color tipped in plates, and original numbered limitation card is included. This is #1979 of a limited edition of 3000 copies. Bambi, the classic story of the gentle fawn and the seasonal joys and sorrows of life in the forest, has warmed and inspired the hearts of all ages since the film was first released in 1942. Universally considered a miracle of animation, generations of movie-goers have venerated the simple beauty of the film's animation art, which stunningly captures the forest's full kaleidoscope of colors and seasons, from the luminescent green sunshine of early spring to the snowy darkness of mid-winter. Featuring the work of Disney animation greats such as Ollie Johnston, Frank Thomas, Marc Davis, Tyrus Wong, and art director Tom Codrik, fans will understand how each of the beloved characters evolved and transformed into animation.
