Leaning forward in his chair with a letter in one hand, Walt Disney speaks, eyebrows raised and lips shaping his words; beside him the grey-haired secretary bends over a pad on the desk and writes with a pencil, her head lowered. The source describes the scene as Disney dictating his reply to the request. By 1937 the licensing of Mickey Mouse on watches, toys and household goods had become a large source of income for the studio, which was then finishing its first feature-length film, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.
