Mickey Mouse = 80 years old

Mickey Mouse
Happy Birthday Mickey Mouse!

The iconic rodent first appeared on cinema screens in animator Walt Disney’s Steamboat Willie” released in 1928.

Since then, Mickey Mouse has featured in films, TV shows, video games and lots of merchandise.

Mickey is a character who wears shoes, shorts and strange white gloves, he lives in a house, drives in a car and has a pet dog called Pluto. In itself, it is rather strange that a mouse has a dog as a pet. Even if it’s a small dog, it still means Mickey is enormously disproportionate in size for a mouse.

Over the years Mickey Mouse has been a symbol of different things at different times. In the Great Depression, Mickey symbolized the American endurance and ability to rise above defeat.

Mickey and Charlie Chaplin both represented the iconic ‘little man’ who - along with hope and optimism inhibited spunkiness and a rudeness to authority.

As Disney’s empire grew, Mickey became the MC, the circus ringmaster for other characters like Donald Duck and Goofy.
