Beauty and the Beast Mrs. Potts Original Animation Drawing (Walt Disney, 1991) Rare

Beauty and the Beast Mrs. Potts "Be Our Guest" Animation Drawing (Walt Disney, 1991). "While the cups do their soft shoein', I'll be bubbling, I'll be brewing" sings Mrs. Potts in the "Be Our Guest" song sequence. Mrs. Potts was voiced by Angela Lansbury in Disney's 1991 feature animated film, Beauty and the Beast, which was the third film released during the era known as the Disney Renaissance (1989 - 1999). This is a rare  animation rough drawing of Mrs. Potts with dialogue notes on the top edge of the pages. In traditional animation, the first drawings are called "roughs" or "rough animation" because they are often done in a very loose fashion. If the animation is successfully pencil tested and approved by the director, clean versions of the drawings are done. This drawings is rendered with blue pencil on 16 field animation paper. The sheet has an extra set of pegholes taped to its lower edge. Mrs. Potts measures about 5"  tall.  Good condition, with some handling and edge wear, including some minor folds and minor staining. Certificate of Authenticity from The Cricket Gallery
