Donald Models – 2
- Last week we had the Donald Models. Actually that was the second edition of Donald models, I’ve posted. The other was a while back – back in July 2009, there was the lecture notes written of the after-hours class held in the ’30s.
As I stated, last week, this post is dedicated to model sheets of Donald that are tied to specific films he was in. I love them all. They come from several periods of Disney shorts and Donalds. The first is from my favorite period for Donald, and I’m sorry he had to change from this guy; I love him. But I also love the Mickey of that period – 1931-32.
In the end we get into the TV Donald – but not too much.
Anyway, enough gab.
Love this character.
Hawaiian Holiday – Sept 24, 1937
Donald’s Ostrich – Dec 10, 1937
Master of the Hounds
retitled The Fox Hunt – July 29 1938
The Hockey Champ – Apr 28, 1939
Officer Duck – October 10, 1939
Donald’s Dog Laundry – April 5 1940
Donald’s Date
retitled Mr. Duck Steps Out – June 7 1940
The Fire Chief – Dec 13 1940
Just heads. This is getting to be late-period Donald.
Here we have one from Steel and America (1964)
an Industrial done for the U.S.Steel Corporation.
Finally, I had to have a Von Drake in the bunch.
Many thanks to the gracious Bill Peckmann for the loan of this material to post. His collection of model sheets is amazing.

I love the posts when you show model sheets! mostly because you include the ones that are really rare, like Von Drake. Thanks!

The Hawaiian Holiday model sheet has poses from Al Eugster’s animation of Donald.

And the Hawaiian Holiday is a beauty. I have to look at that film again. Just beautiful poses.

That Von Drake sheet is great. Looks like Kahl drawings taken straight out of animation.
