Long lost Mickey Mouse sketch surfaces after almost 75 years!

It's always amazing when a long lost piece of work resurfaces after decades of being hidden away. Hidden in the Walt Disney Archives for more than 74 years, this great piece of Mickey Mouse art has just resurfaced that features Mickey Mouse and his nemesis Pete in the classic cartoon "Mickey's Toothache". The original era of Mickey Mouse was a lot of fun and finding a piece like this is finding historical treasure. Let me know what you think of the art in the comments!

"In “Mickey’s Toothache,” created in April 1938, artist Ferdinand Horvath has the newly adventurous Mickey experiencing something akin to a psychedelic nightmare. In the words of Disney Archives Director Becky Cline, Mickey has traveled to the dentist and fallen under the influence of too much laughing gas. The overdose sends Mickey into a “nightmarish world inhabited by living teeth, dental floss, a psychotic dentist’s chair and a vengeful pair of dental pliers," said Cline.
Mickey’s then-nemesis Pete also makes an appearance in the nightmare scenario. It culminates with Mickey being put on trial led, of course, by a judgmental wisdom tooth, who charges Mickey with tooth neglect.
The previously forgotten piece of artwork was discovered in the Walt Disney Archives, hiding out in a folder lost for more than 74 years. It was unearthed just a few months ago."
