    20210614_182515_compress20.jpg 20210614_182522_compress32.jpg 20210614_182538_compress89.jpg So I bought this a few months ago out of thrift store. I have looked it up and know that it is a lithograph is from a concept art from the movie bambi. My question is, is mine any different from all the others because I feel like the signature is different. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Also, any idea on value?

    Please show the link you've found that relates this to the animated film Bambi.

    Edit...
    Ah, that will do.

    If the title is correct for this picture and if this Wikipedia entry is correct (lots of ifs) then Imaginary Landscape no 1 & 2 are listed as from 1955. Bambi was in 1942.

    Tyrus Wong did work on Bambi, but he was an artist that lived to the age of 106, only dying not that long ago. In that long career, I'm sure he produced many things that have no connection to Bambi. So I also am wondering like @Roaring20s , how is it known that this directly related to Bambi.

    Title is Imaginary Landscape #1. It has sold on eBay before, it is a lithograph.

    So maybe it wasn't concept art, but he IS the original illustrator that did Bambi. Correct?

    I don't know what an "original illustrator" is for something that has so many hands. But his work on Bambi was important. Here is what Disney.com has to say.

    It looks VERY similar to a drawing in a book I had, probably 1944-48, with a story about a deer family.
