Made in 1939, Walt Disney's classic film Pinocchio was the studio's second ever feature film and continues to warm the hearts of audiences even 82 years later. Since then, the beloved conscience of Pinocchio, Jiminy Cricket, has continued to reappear in Disney productions; from shorts to educational children's films in the 1970s and beyond.

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.
