"Robin
Hood" was the twenty-first full length animated film released by Walt
Disney Studios on November 8, 1973. Robin Hood is an anthropomorphic fox
and the protagonist of the film. Although Robin Hood is often shown as
an outlaw who chooses to rob from the rich to help the poor people, in
this Disney animated version, he is shown mainly attacking Prince John
and his agents (Sir Hiss and the Sheriff of Nottingham), who have
impoverished Nottingham with high taxes. Robin Hood and Little John
steal the tax caravans and give it back to the peasants while trying to
avoid capture.

Prince John is a spoiled King who will resort to any underhanded trick
so that he can maintain the crown and throne of Nottingham. He was
voiced by the great and deep voiced Peter Ustinov, Sir Hiss (Prince
John's snake advisor) was voiced by Terry-Thomas (who's hissing speech
was masterful); and both were animated by Ollie Johnston. This is a wonderful original
production animation cel of Prince John. The large image shows him with his right paw fist out stretched and his eyes and mouth open. He is wearing his crown and blue royal robe and tunic. A great hand painted work of art from
one of the most beloved Walt Disney feature films!
