The Moore That Got Away



In 1996, while bidding on these two drawings at auction, I had to realize how popular and revered Fred Moore had become. These character design sketches depicting Grace Martin from the 1946 short film The Martins and the Coys sold for a small fortune to a lucky collector.
I am just glad these drawings survived at all and that I can show them here as scans from the catalogue.
