New Walt Disney Cartoonist Mug for the Century
As the Walt Disney Company celebrates Disney100, the 100 Years of Wonder, MickeyBlog is at Disneyland for the celebration. While we were there, we found this new Walt Disney cartoonist mug.
A Little History
Before Walt Disney began The Walt Disney Company, he and Ub Iwerks started a small studio together in 1922. They used a secondhand movie camera to make cartoon sketches called Laugh-O-Grams.
With that being a stepping stone for Walt Disney’s ultimate dream come true, this new ceramic coffee mug tributes Walt’s former hand-designed business card of “Walt Disney-Cartoonist.”
Magical Mornings
Therefore, before Walt Disney moved to California, he created these “Laugh-O-Grams” silent cartoons in Kansas City, Missouri. Truly, magic is in the details of this hot beverage mug.
As mentioned above, this “Walt Disney-Cartoonist” design was inspired by Disney’s 1920s business card. The mug has a gloss glaze, and it is part of the Disney100 Celebration Collections.
This stoneware piece is safe for the microwave and dishwasher. However, remember to wash the mug thoroughly before you use it!
Nostalgia in the Mornings
So, let’s take a closer look at this new Walt Disney mug. Of course, the front has a cartoonist who is diligently working on perfecting his artistry.
Sketches fly to the floor as the top says, “Walt Disney Cartoonist.” Also, it describes Disney’s talents such as “Comic Cartoons, Advertising Cartoons, Animated Motion, and Picture Cartoons.” It is so awesome that we can have a merchandise item that reflects such history!
If you turn the mug around, it says, “7719 Hyperion Hollywood.” This, of course, is the address for Walt Disney Studios. Therefore, this mug beautifully ties in the past, present, and future.
History is Priceless
To me, the mug is priceless. However, the Emporium in Disneyland disagrees. Therefore, this new Walt Disney cartoonist mug can be yours for $19.99, plus tax.
