Disney Steamboat Minnie, is 38 cm in size, not jointed, made from black/white colored trevira velvet and is limited to 1,090 pieces. Mickey Mouse made his debut on November 18, 1928, at the Colony Theater in New York in Steamboat Willie, Disney’s first animated cartoon with synchronized sound. Walt Disney directed the short film and contributed his own squeaks to the soundtrack, which was backed by a 15-piece band recorded with the Powers Cinephone process.

As a mischievous deckhand on a riverboat, Mickey – to Minnie’s delight – creates a musical version of “Turkey in the Straw,” utilizing an animal menagerie as his instruments. The tyrannical Captain Pete is not amused, and Mickey finds himself peeling potatoes in the galley.

In celebration of 90 years of Mickey Mouse this Steamboat Minnie has been issued.

The skirt and matching hat make her a real eye-catcher. In keeping with the black and white production of Mickey Mouse’s debut, she has been designed in black and white.

She comes in a box with a certificate of authenticity.
