Gustav Tenggren was chief illustrator on Disney's 'Snow White & the Seven Dwarfs', 'Bambi' and 'Pinocchio', as well as the illustrator for numerous, well loved Little Golden Books. Below, his original art for 'The Night Before Christmas'…

The Christmas postcard is just amazing! Thank you for sharing - I will look for more works by Tenggren. I am quite indifferent to Disney (now) but there can be more like the postcard! I love illustrations and collect chidren's books but they are mostly Russian (Soviet), and I am little aware of Western illustrators. So I will read your blog!
