QUESTION: Mr. Calabrese,
I have an original production drawing depicting Donald Duck, Goofy, Snow White and Little John all carrying luggage with Donald in the front holding what looks like a train or plane ticket.  Attached to the drawing is a label that says "Donald Duck, Goofy, Snow White, Little John 6/29 #17.
Can you tell me what those numbers mean and the name and date of the film or short this is from?  I'm donating this to a charity auction and want to make sure of the details.  Thank you, Paul Jones

ANSWER: Hi Paul,

Can you please email me a scan of the picture so I can try to answer this for you?

Thanks,

Answer
Hi Paul,

It's actual animation drawing from this Eastern Airlines Commercial from the late 1970's:

Orson Welles is doing the Voice Over narration.

It's not worth as much as a production drawing from a feature, but as an actual production drawing it's worth something.

Check out Van Eaton Galleries to give you an actual quote on how much it's worth.

Hope this Helps.
