WALT

 

Walt would recall later, “I was all alone back then, i didn’t even have a Mouse.”

It was on that infamous train ride from New York to California that Walt drew Mickey Mouse for the first time.

Walt replaced Oswald the Lucky Rabbit’s tail with a longer, skinny tail and he replaced the long tall bunny ears with big round mouse ears.

Every Company has a story.

The great ones use their story in intentional ways.
