Pippo 90 – Una vita da svitato
The most beloved comic strip artist turns 90 and is celebrated by Cartoon Club with an exhibition-tribute inside the Luigi Tonini City Museum.
Born with the name of Dippy Dawg in the short film Mickey’s Revue of May 1932, characterized immediately by his unmistakable laughter, he took his definitive name two years later, but it was with the comics of the legendary Floyd Gottfredson that he really acquired his role as Mickey Mouse’s irreplaceable sidekick.
Thanks to the contribution of private collectors, in Pippo 90 original drawings of comics and animation will be exhibited to retrace his career, from a very rare strip by Gottfredson from Topolino nella casa dei fantasmi of 1936 to the drawings of the Italian cartoonists who celebrated him on the weekly Topolino, passing through originals of his alter egos Sport Goofy and Super Goofy.
