Hollywood, where he and his Drom er Roy kicked around for a few months without any luck when suddenly one day an independent distributor ordered a series of their fairytale cartoons. Minor success with "Alice in Cartoonland and "Oswam ine Rabbit" followed but the distriD uting firm decided that Walt's fin ancial ideas were too grand, and severed its connection with him. . Once again, Walt and Roy were al- most flat. They had a small stuaio. few loyal men and nothing to j do. What to do.' 1 tie oni answei ; was to create a new character.
