Boris Grinsson (1907-1999)

This very sweet seven minute animation stars Pluto in the leading role. He falls in love with Dinah the dachshund, who snubs him, until he bravely rescues her from the dog pound. Although Pluto is the main star in this animation, the designer Boris Grinsson used his artistic license and included Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, Donald and his nephew, even though they do not appear in the animation. An extremely rare poster, with only a very few copies known to have survived.
