Before becoming an Imagineer, Atencio was an animator at the Disney Studios from 1938 to 1965. After joining the Imagineering team, he wrote the script for Adventure Thru Inner Space and Pirates of the Caribbean, as well as writing lyrics for many of the song heard in the Haunted Mansion. During the 1980 renovation of Fantasyland, he assisted in designing the new mural for Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride as well as working on several other attractions. The untrimmed animation paper measures 12.5”x16”. The total image size of the characters is 12”x10”. In very good condition with slight wear. Hand-signed at the lower right.
