Description

This beloved Silly Symphony features a little Native American boy named Hiawatha who goes out to the forest to go hunting with his bow and arrow.
The softhearted boy cannot bring himself to harm any of the woodland creatures, however, and he abandons the task, breaking his bow and arrow.
This absolutely adorable image depicts Hiawatha as he lowers his bow, realizing that he does not want to harm the little rabbit at which he was aiming his weapon.
The image can be found at about the 3:50 mark of the Silly Symphony.
This short and its subject intrigued Walt Disney so much that he began development on a feature film based on Hiawatha.
However, this film would never come to be.
This lovely original animation drawing features an image of Little Hiawatha measuring about 4.75" x 6.75".
The drawing is created with graphite and colored pencils on 12 field, 5-peghole animation paper.
It is marked in its lower right corner with 34A.
This charming piece is in Very Good condition, with just minor handling and edge wear and some minor age-related toning.

Corto nº 67. Little Hiawatha (El pequeño Hiawatha), 15 de mayo de 1937. David Dodd Hand. Se trata de la última "Silly Symphony" distribuida por United Artists.
