I am in love with this Zulli (I even wrote, probably utter bollocks, about it) and watched it for a long time. And it sat at a price I would have paid for a long time, too. Until shortly before the live auction started. It eventually went for over $16,000 (still a bargain compared to the Moebius that went for $96,000 😳). ‘Twas but a D/dream, and I’ll need to keep on staring at it on my phone…

But what an awesome auction, and so kind to give back to the artists, too (who often get forgotten about to be frank)…

so, you might've seen this poster as of late since some folks have been claiming that it's from 1928 to try and prove that mickey with gloves is public domain:

of course, this has been debunked already

anyone with a half decent knowledge on mickey mouse should know that mickey didn't have his gloves during his first year. he first got them in the 1929 short "The Opry House", so for him to have his gloves in a poster from '28 wouldn't make much sense; especially since mickey didn't have gloves till his second short from 1929. why would mickey have gloves in an unspecific poster a year before he'd actually wear them in a cartoon?

well, i found the heritage auctions listing for the poster the article that claims it's from 1928 mentions and in the description it reads:

"...So this is very likely the only poster created for Mickey until the 1930 era. Therefore, this is the original and very first appearance of Mickey Mouse on a one sheet and could date from the release of Steamboat Willie."

so yeah, it turns out that article's claim of the 1928 release date came from a small bit of speculation from the auction's description writer, which the article ran with and people are still trying to run with almost 12 years later. isn't that lovely?

tl;dr the article many people are using as proof that gloved mickey is public domain didn't look into it more as the article got that date from a small guess made by a heritage auctions description writer 11/12 years ago. mickey first got his gloves in 1929 for the opry house
