ABOUT THE IMAGE: "Always let your conscience be your guide!" Jiminy Cricket is featured here in this spectacular set of 11 studio-printed character model sheets used during the production of Walt Disney's 1940 animated feature masterpiece Pinocchio. Amazing images of the iconic character from many angles in several expressions and poses, these model sheets were integral to the design of the beloved Jiminy Cricket. Including some repeats, this set was printed on photographic paper by the Walt Disney studio in extremely limited quantities, and they are considered especially rare. 

ABOUT THE MEDIUM: Photostat Model Sheets are reference guides used by animators to ensure consistency in character design, proportions, and expressions throughout a film. These printed sheets typically feature multiple poses, facial expressions, and turnarounds of a character, often photocopied from finalized drawings by lead animators. Model sheets help maintain uniformity in animation by providing a standard reference for all artists working on a character, preventing visual discrepancies between different scenes.
