An original drawing created in the 1940’s by a Warner Bros. animator as a gift for an Ink and Paint department colleague. Featuring a comical image of the ink and painter, Dorris, making a comment on her body type, the graphite drawing was likely created by her friend, animator Don William's, for her birthday. William's worked for Warner Bros. but also went on to be a famed animator and performer with Walt Disney Studios, where he also became an original Mouseketeer on the original Mickey Mouse Club television program. Measuring 9.5”x12” overall, with the character image measuring 8”x11.5”, the drawing is in fair condition with page discoloration, tearing along the top edge and bottom right corner, a large crease down the middle, likely from being stored folded, and wrinkling throughout.
