Disney’s Brave Little Tailor Mickey Mouse Clock

Posted on by

Happy Saturday, Disney Friends!  Let’s go back in time to 1938 for the film debut of Walt Disney’s Brave Little Tailor cartoon starring Mickey Mouse!  One of the all time classics, this 9-minute adventure (based on a tale by the Brothers Grimm) showcases Walt Disney at his finest as both the film’s creator and the voice of Mickey Mouse.  Nick’s Disneyana collection contains several items derived from this cartoon and today I’ve found a special and unique treasure to share with you.  Y’all have a great weekend!

Disney’s Brave Little Tailor Mickey Mouse Clock

 – By Nick

In previous posts, I discussed 2 items I bought way back in 1996 from the Official Disneyana Convention, a mug and a hat. Today I’d like to share a resin clock I purchased on eBay, also from the convention.

Mickey as the Brave Little Tailor measures 5 1/4 inches high from the bottom of the base to the tip of his feather.

The clock battery has expired, and needs to be replaced.

Like the mug, this clock is limited to 2000 pieces.

I also have an ornament from the convention, which I originally purchased in 1996, which I will share in a future post.

Brave Little Tailor – Walt Disney Classics Collection

Posted on by

It’s time for another exiting installment of Saturdays With Nick!  That means it’s the weekend (finally)!  Until I met Nick, I only thought I had a pretty decent collection of Disneyana.  Compared to Nick, though, I’m a total rookie.  I’m sorry to say I have not one single piece of the Walt Disney Classics Collection and will reluctantly admit, this is probably not a bad thing.  For my own sanity and the safety of my wallet, I need to draw the line somewhere.  That doesn’t keep me from absolutely adoring this pair of cuties.  Be sure to check out the expression on Minnie’s face!  Totes adorbs! (Nick loves it when I say that!)

Brave Little Tailor – Walt Disney Classics Collection

By Nick

These Mickey and Minnie, Brave Little Tailor Walt Disney Classics Collection pieces are among my favorite collectibles.

Mickey stands 7 1/4 inches tall. Plussing includes a matte platinum finish on his scissors.

 

Titled “I let him have it”, it is the 1993 Animators Choice Figurine, and the first year redemption sculpture for the Walt Disney Classic Collection. It bears the Treble Clef production mark, symbolizing the music in the Academy Award-winning ‘Silly Symphonies’.

Minnie stands 6 1/2 inches tall. Her veil is painted with opalescent paint, and her shoe buckles are painted gold.

 

Titled “Princess Minnie”, this piece was the 1996 Animator’s Choice sculpt.

She has the Sailor’s Hat production mark, which represents Donald Duck’s on-screen debut in 1934 animated short, ‘The Wise Little Hen’.

They perfectly capture 2 beloved characters in a beloved scene from a (Is he going to say it again? Yes!) beloved animated short.
