ABOUT THE IMAGE: This rare 1970s photostat print may have been created for use with consumer products or even for the planning stages of a mural similar to those seen in Disney Stores and the Parks. The 16 field sheet has been hand-numbered in the upper left corner, and the characters have been hand-colored with grey and/or black marker. 

ABOUT THE MEDIUM: Photostat Model Sheets are reference guides used by animators to ensure consistency in character design, proportions, and expressions throughout a film. These printed sheets typically feature multiple poses, facial expressions, and turnarounds of a character, often photocopied from finalized drawings by lead animators. Model sheets help maintain uniformity in animation by providing a standard reference for all artists working on a character, preventing visual discrepancies between different scenes.
