Lot 219		Walt Disney Studios. The Pop-Up Mickey Mouse Book (1933). Original 1933 Walt Disney Mickey Mouse Pop-Up Book. Three colorful pop-ups with a Mickey and Minnie circus adventure. Book most definitely show signs of use and wear especially by a youngster named Paul who embellished with pencil scribbling the front and back covers and helpfully numbered the pages in top left corners. So in only good condition. But book is complete and pop-ups colorful and stout. We are to understand a vintage paper restorer can minimize these issues considerably. But know these pop-up books even with moderate wear can hit $300 to $500 regularly. This one is priced very reasonably. Estimate $100 - UP View details and enlarged photos	Realized $163
