Advent Calendar Day 7

Wow, I’m really behind on this. Work and life are really kicking my butt (as always). Oh well. 

This picture isn’t the best. Oops. I think I took it really late at night. 

How well do y’all know older Disney characters?  I mean the ones from classic cartoons.

Because...

It’s Horace Horsecollar!

I don’t know much about him, but after a quick Wikipedia search, I read that he was created in 1929 by Walt Disney and Ub Iwerks.  He first appeared in the cartoon The Plow Boy. He’s a black horse, and one of Mickey Mouse’s best friends. Perhaps they have grown apart over the last few centuries?

His collar is so fluffy! The collar is a part of his character design, but is it removable? Is he wearing it by choice or by force? Horace, speak to us!

His overalls are cool, too.
