Historical Background

Mickey Mouse is a pop culture icon and a legendary character of the Walt Disney Company. The character Mickey Mouse was created in 1928 when the studio lost the copyright to the character Oswald the Lucky Rabbit. It all began one day in a house in Kansas City when a small mouse jumped onto Walt Disney's desk. Feeling a fondness for it, he concluded that it could become the hero of his cartoons. The mouse thus continued to live in a cage, and its behaviors were later transferred to paper.

The character was initially supposed to be named Mortimer, but at the suggestion of his wife Lilly, who found the name too serious, the animator decided to name it "Mickey." This is a diminutive of the name Michael. The name Mortimer was given to Mickey's biggest rival in the cartoons, with whom he competed for Minnie's affections.

Walt Disney is a legend of animation and film, one of the greatest creators in the entertainment industry in history. He received a record number of 59 Oscar nominations, winning 26 statuettes. One of them was for creating Mickey Mouse. The author himself lent his voice to this character for many years.
