Vintage Ink Drawing by "Dick Boone"

Drawing with likeness of the anthromorphic rabbit, Oswald the Lucky Rabbit.

Created by Walt Disney. Walter Lantz took charge of the character when Universal Pictures hired him.


The image is not confirmed but is quite similar to the character, Oswald. There were different versions of this character and I posted the images that were most like my drawing. The single strap overall with a button is over the left shoulder. The character here is also more rabbit like, whereas the earlier version was more mouse like, much like the first images of Mickey. This drawing is in black ink on a cardstock-type paper. There is discoloration of the paper due to age. The signature indicates the artist is Dick Boone. After researching the artist, no definitive information was found. Any information is appreciated.


Below is part of an article that I found online. It includes book covers with images of Oswald that are similar to my drawing. The drawing in the center is strikingly similar as well. Again, any information is appreciated as I can't connect the author to any of this information.
