Oswald the Lucky Rabbit

Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, also known as Oswald the Rabbit, Oswald Rabbit, and Ozzie, is an animated cartoon character created in 1927 by Walt Disney and Ub Iwerks for Universal Pictures. He starred in the titular series of short films released to theaters from 1927 to 1938. Twenty-seven animated Oswald shorts were animated at the Walt Disney Studio and produced by Winkler Pictures, while the rest were produced by Walter Lantz Productions. After Universal took control of Oswald's character in 1928, Disney created Mickey Mouse as a replacement to Oswald, surpassing Lantz's Oswald in popularity as the series was eventually made redundant in favor of other Universal series. The films established both Walt Disney Studio and Walter Lantz Productions as major players in the American animation industry in the golden age of American animation.
