Disney started in the 1923 recession.

Walt began the year in Kansas City.

His animation business went bankrupt.

He moved to California.

He couldn’t find a job.

So he returned to cartoons.

He launched a studio in his uncle’s garage.

He got his first contract in October. pic.twitter.com/FWXhcEtxX1
