ASIFA-Hollywood Teams With Sotheby’s to Auction Rare Pieces of Animation History to Support Artists Affected by the L.A. Fires

ASIFA-Hollywood has teamed with Sotheby’s to auction rare pieces of animation history to support artists affected by the L.A. fires.

Highlights of the auction include a black-and-white story sketch from 1935’s “Tortoise and the Hare;” 3D-printed Pinocchio faces used in the creation of the 2022 Academy Award winner “Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio;” and a color pencil drawing of Woody and Buzz Lightyear, created to benefit AnimAID and commemorate the 30th anniversary of Disney and Pixar’s Toy Story release. “As we face the devastating aftermath of the wildfires, this initiative allows us to come together not only to provide essential relief, but also to honor the artists and professionals who have given so much to the world of animation. We are deeply grateful for the generous support from all our collaborations, and we are thrilled to share these iconic pieces of animation history with the public.”
