This Donald Duck animation cel is from Don Donald; a 1937 American animated short film produced by Walt Disney Productions and released by United Artists. The cartoon follows Donald Duck attempting to woo a female Mexican duck named Donna, played of course by Daisy Duck (although there is some serious cartoon controversy whether or not Donna is an early version of Daisy Duck as recognized by the Internet Movie Database or a rival of Daisy’s).
The cartoon takes place in Mexico and tells the story of Don Donald going to greet his girlfriend, Donna. Donald rides a donkey and lets Donna also ride it, but unfortunately, Donna hates the animal. Angered at blowing his chances with Donna, Donald Duck gets angry at his donkey and calls it a mean name before seeing a flashy new red car on sale.
With that, Donald trades in his burro for the new car. Donna loves the new car — until it breaks down in the middle of nowhere. She leaves Donald, who is left with nothing but a shrunken sombrero. The donkey, having returned on the scene, has the last laugh.
This Donald Duck animation cel was originally sold through Courvoisier Galleries and has the original Courvoisier background. This Donna/Daisy and Donald Duck animation cel has a set of relatives – The Mice
