Walt Disney's Goofy "How to Fish" Commemorative Canvas Print
This item is a large-format vertical canvas print featuring promotional artwork for Walt Disney's Goofy short film "How to Fish," originally released in 1942. The artwork depicts Goofy in a red fishing suit, comically entangled with a fishing rod while various animated fish circle him in a swirl of water and motion. The color palette consists of vintage-inspired muted tones, with vibrant reds in the costume and script lettering contrasted against sage green swirls and a cream-colored background. The text features 'Walt Disney's' in black block letters, 'Goofy' in a red stylized script, and 'HOW TO FISH' in bold, arched black typography at the base. The piece is constructed as a wrapped canvas, likely over a wooden internal frame, giving it a modern gallery-wrap appearance without an external frame. Small copyright markings are visible near Goofy's feet, suggesting a licensed reproduction rather than an original production cell. The condition appears excellent with no visible tears or fading, and the printing quality is sharp, capturing the dynamic lines of the mid-century animation style typical of Disney's 'How To' series. The overall composition is balanced and illustrative of the classic slapstick humor associated with the character's 1940s era adventures.
