The Barnyard Battle incident did not incite wider anti-Mickey sentiment in Germany in 1930; however, after Adolf Hitler came to power several years later, the Nazi regime unambiguously propagandized against Disney. In the film The Opry House (1929), Mickey was first given white gloves as a way of contrasting his naturally black hands against his black body. This phenomenon is known as " Hidden Mickeys", involving hidden images in Disney films, theme parks, and merchandise.

The first feature-length movie with dialogue sequences, The Jazz Singer starring Al Jolson, was released on October 6, 1927.Jimmy MacDonald took over the role in 1946, but Walt provided Mickey's voice again from 1955 to 1959 for The Mickey Mouse Club television series on ABC. Mickey is the subject of the 2022 documentary film Mickey: The Story of a Mouse, directed by Jeff Malmberg. Mickey's eyes, as drawn in Plane Crazy and The Gallopin' Gaucho, were large and white with black outlines.

It is said that conductor Arturo Toscanini so loved this short that, upon first seeing it, he asked the projectionist to run it again. But in 1988, the two rivals finally shared screen time in the Robert Zemeckis Disney/ Amblin film Who Framed Roger Rabbit.Legal issues The early design of Mickey Mouse is one of the most notable works that entered the public domain in 2024. Green Skivertex-boards, gilt to upper panels and spines, spine-bands and marker-ribbons, green endpapers with gilt design, printed in black and red on half-title and title-pages, plus introductions and b/w-illustrated text. However, a watermelon bearing Mickey's physical likeness appears in one episode as a ventriloquist dummy companion to Donald Duck. If you have any appreciation of Dicken's work you will love the detail, occasional irony and illustrative value of the monologues. Pages can include limited notes and highlighting, and the copy can include previous owner inscriptions.
