The attached Schmid tag reads:
Welcome to the Magic Kingdom!
Schmid is proud to bring you this
Walt Disney Character music box as
part of an exclusive collection of gifts,
representing over 50 years of
legendary Disney tradition.
Here are all the familiar faces that you
grew up with, faithfully recreated in
every delicate detail. And their magnetic
charm comes to life as the play
your favorite tune. Every Walt Disney
Character music box is handcrafted,
hand painted and brought to you
through the Magic of Schmid.
Disney Artist Preston Blair
was tasked with animating
Sorcerer Mickey who as the
Apprentice (and in the absence
of his master) borrows the magic
hat and orders the broom to take
over the tedious chore of bringing
in water from the well to fill
a great tub. While the broom
goes about this task, Mickey
falls asleep and dreams of
how his new magical powers
could command the forces of
the universe. On his awakening
he finds the workshop flooded
and the Apprentice does not
know how to stop it.
The situation is saved only by
the return of the Sorcerer, who
magically clears the workshop
of water and brooms alike!
As 1990 marked the
50th Anniversary of the original
release of Fantasia in 1940,
this wonderful Schmid Music Box
was issued to celebrate the event.
Schmid Bros., Inc. was a Licensee of
collectible Disney merchandise
starting in 1970. Their relationship
continued until 1995!
