Today is a very important day in Disney history!
It's Mickey Mouse's 84th birthday!!!
To celebrate this monumental day, I decided to find some photos of Mickey throughout the years. Enjoy!

Mickey Mouse today! |
He really has gone through an amazing transformation since the very first short film was released way back in 1928. He does have a 3D-like version of himself on Playhouse Disney, but I don't really care for that kind of Mickey. 2D version will always hold a soft spot in my heart!
Have a magical day!

Great retrospective of Mickey. Fortunately Walt decided not to name him Mortimer as originally planned, I just don't it would have caught on as well as Mickey. My favorite era would be the very early Mickey and the 80s.

Heads-up: Steamboat Willie came out in 1928, if it was 1927, he'd be 85 ;)
