Coin Story
Mickey Mouse, Walt Disney’s primary cartoon character, made his debut in
Steamboat Willie
on November 18, 1928, at the Colony Theater in New York. The animated short film is notable for being the first Disney cartoon with synchronised sound, including character sound and a musical score.
In the film, Mickey is a mischievous deckhand on a riverboat, who plays “Turkey in the Straw” utilizing an animal menagerie as his instruments. The tyrannical Captain Pete is not amused, and Mickey ends up peeling potatoes in the galley.
