The "Animation and Disneyana Auction", held at Profiles in
History in Los Angeles, will offer 600 lots of animation art and
Disney-related items.
The list includes animation frames from memorable films such as
"Cinderella" and the holiday classic "How the Grinch Stole
Christmas". A prop pistol from the original "Pirates of the
Caribbean" attraction at Walt Disney World will also go under
the hammer.
Disney's last will and testament is expected to fetch between
$40,000 and $60,000, said Brian Chanes, head of acquisitions at
Profiles in History.
Disney co-founded an animation studio in 1923, which eventually
grew into a feature film production studio with films such as
"Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs," "Bambi" and "Cinderella." He
died in 1966 aged 65.
