Original unbound Walt Disney Productions script for “Story of Pluto, Show #9—Acts I, II and III,” 9 x 11.5, eight pages. Label on the front of the gray folder also reads, “First Script, Nick Nichols, June 28, 1954.” Signed in pencil in the upper left corner of the label, “Walt.” On the third page, Disney has made four edits in blue pencil in what he’s scripted to say. He moved a line from page 3 to page 4 and eliminated one sentence and part of a third. He also changed “When Pluto first started back around 1930 he played a small bit part in one of Mickey’s pictures. We needed a bloodhound to track down Mickey.” Disney crossed out the second sentence and handwrote: “that of a bloodhound.” In fine condition. Charles August “Nick” Nichols directed the Disneyland television episode, A Story of Dogs, which aired on December 1, 1954. Part of the episode was a behind-the-scenes look at the making of Lady and the Tramp which would be released the following summer. The other part told the story, in cartoons, of Disney's first canine star, Pluto. A great ‘hands-on’ example showing Disney’s involvement with every facet of his corporation. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
