Laugh-O-Gram Studio was a film studio located on the second floor of the McConahay Building at 1127 East 31st in Kansas City, Missouri. The studio played a role in the early years of animation: it was home to many of the pioneers of animation, brought there by Walt Disney, and is said to be the place to have provided Disney with the inspiration to create Mickey Mouse. The studio building had fallen to ruin by 2004 at the time the photo was taken and efforts were being made to restore it.

  • Laugh-O-Gram Studio was a film studio located on the second floor of the McConahay Building at 1127 East 31st in Kansas City, Missouri. The studio played a role in the early years of animation: it was home to many of the pioneers of animation, brought there by Walt Disney, and is said to be the place to have provided Disney with the inspiration to create Mickey Mouse. The studio building had fallen to ruin by 2004 at the time the photo was taken and efforts were being made to restore it. The Disney family had promised $450,000 in matching funds for the restoration. By 2009, the exterior of the building had been restored, with all the butresses removed, etc. , but it was left looking like an abandoned, boarded up warehouse. An almost illegible sign adorned the exterior wall saying, "Thank you, Walt Disney, Inc."
  • Le Laugh-O-Gram Studio, ou la société Laugh-O-Gram Films Inc, est le nom du premier studio d'animation fondé par Walt Disney, en 1922 à Kansas City dans le Missouri, alors qu'il avait 21 ans. Le studio et ses productions nommées Laugh-O-Grams marquent la première tentative de Disney de se lancer à son compte dans le monde du cinéma et de l'animation en particulier. Il fonde son studio dans la ville de Kansas City, loin de New York, alors capitale de l'animation, ou d'Hollywood, capitale du film en pleine croissance. Débordant d'enthousiasme mais inexpérimenté dans la gestion d'entreprise, il s'entoure de futurs grands noms de l'animation. Parmi ses employés, on retrouve Iwerks, Hugh Harman, Rudolf Ising, Carmen Maxwell et Friz Freleng. Le studio fait faillite un an après sa création mais contient déjà les racines des futurs succès de Disney.
