The Grey Pluto
Starring Mickey Mouse, with his assistants Minnie Mouse, Clarabelle Cow and a strange "grey Pluto" at the end, the Parade of the Award Nominees was only shown at the Awards Banquet in 1932.
Co-created by Walt Disney and Ub Iwerks, Mickey, who was wearing green instead of his famous red shorts, was sorrounded by several animals and insects as musicians and pages.
Caricature of the nominees were created by Joe Grant, a real Disney Legend, who was hired to give birth those particular drawings. He worked for the Walt Disney Company until 2005. He helped the storyboard for the Academy Award Nominated Short Lorenzo in 2005, but the last film he worked for was Chicken Little, and the movie was dedicated to him when he died at 97 while working at his drawing board.
