One of Babbitt’s greatest animated sequences is of drunken Abner, the Country Mouse, in Disney’s Oscar-winning short, “The Country Cousin” (1936). This mosaic of the animator draft not only includes the names of the artist for each scene, but also his room number and the date the scene was assigned.
