Tinker Bell Production Drawing from Peter Pan (1953)

This item is an unframed sketch or production drawing believed to depict the character Tinker Bell (from Disney's animated film 'Peter Pan'). The drawing is executed in what appears to be graphite pencil, with some possible light blue or teal colored pencil accents indicating her wings. It portrays Tinker Bell in a dynamic pose, with her arms outstretched and subtle motion suggested around her form. Her facial expression is characteristic of the mischievous fairy. The lines are clean and precise, indicative of professional animation artwork. The paper shows some signs of age, including slight discoloration or toning, but no significant tears or creases are visible from the image. There may be some light surface scuffs or smudges, consistent with handling during the animation production process. In the lower right corner, there is hand-lettered text that reads "Peter Pan" and "1953," suggesting this could be a production drawing or concept art from the original 1953 Disney animated feature film, 'Peter Pan.' The craftsmanship is excellent, reflecting the quality control expected from a major animation studio. The drawing appears to be of production quality, potentially an original animation cel drawing or a character study. The drawing style is consistent with mid-20th century Disney animation.
