REUTERS - Walt Disney fans can
buy a piece of history when the late animation entrepreneur's signed will and
other Disney memorabilia go up for auction on Friday.
The "Animation
and Disneyana Auction", held at Profiles in History in Los Angeles, will
offer 600 lots of animation art and Disney-related items.
The list includes
animation frames from memorable films such as "Cinderella" and the
holiday classic "How the Grinch Stole Christmas". A prop pistol from
the original "Pirates of the Caribbean" attraction at Walt Disney
World will also go under the hammer.
Disney's last will
and testament is expected to fetch between $40,000 and $60,000, said Brian
Chanes, head of acquisitions at Profiles in History.
Disney co-founded an
animation studio in 1923, which eventually grew into a feature film production
studio with films such as "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs,"
"Bambi" and "Cinderella." He died in 1966 aged 65.
