Mickey and the Beanstalk Card Game, from Walt Disney's "Fun and Fancy Free"
First Published: 1947, Pepys Series Games by Castell Brothers Ltd., Bow Street London and North Wallace Street, Glasgow
Illustrator or Designer: Ern Shaw designer, illustrated after Walt Disney Studios
Contents: 44 Cards, 1 Fold-Out Beanstalk card + Rules Booklet

There are 44 cards in 9 sets of 4, lettered and numbered from A1 to I4, plus 4 Fairy Harp and 4 Willie the Giant cards. Laid out in order, using the fold-out Beanstalk card as a guide, the cards tell the story of Mickey and the Beanstalk.







The game is based on the Mickey and the Beanstalk section of Disney's 1947 animated package film Fun and Fancy Free. In the film Walt Disney gave his last major performance personally voicing Mickey Mouse, as he had done since 1928.
The film is based on the fairy tale Jack and the Beanstalk.
In this instance Ern Shaw's credit must be for the game's design rather than the illustrations.
