(Disney, c.1936) A rare pocket knife depicting Mickey Mouse in his popular "pie-eyed" design of the 1930s. The knife was created by the Imperial Knife Co. of Rhode Island, and this style of knife can be seen in the 1936-37 merchandise catalogs by Disney's historic merchandising representative, Kay Kamen. The single-blade knife is stamped "Imperial" at the base of the blade and has an early "W.D. Ent." copyright mark below Mickey. Measuring 2.75" long with the blade collapsed, the knife is in good condition with some surface wear from use. A few of the "Mickey Mouse" letters have fading, and there are some scuffs to the blade from use. The blade still has some sharpness to it and the piece presents very well overall.
