Mummy likes Mickey and so does dad, they like Donald and Goofy too. They say they watched them when they were young so does it mean that Disney is so old, if so why haven’t the cartoon characters aged? Actually they have.
When Mickey Mouse made his debut to the general public in a film named Steamboat Willie on November 19, 1928, at the Colony Theatre in New York he looked a lot different. In fact, he was quite similar to Oswald the Rabbit. The main differences being Mickey Mouse had short round ears instead of long bunny ears, a longer nose, a long skinny mouse tail instead of a bunny tail, and skinnier legs and arms. But the face, eyes, mouth and hairline were very similar.
Over the years Mickey Mouse has evolved and so has every other cartoon character that has stood in limelight long enough to be termed a classic hit. Tracing the tracks of evolution and growth not just in characterisation but also production is the Cartoon Museum at Mercato shopping mall. Located just opposite Starbucks on the ground floor, this exhibition of memorabilia, facts and figures takes viewers on a journey through the colourful career paths of many cartoons and their creators.
