In this June 29, 1966 letter, Walt Disney mentions his most famous character and the one considered to be his own alter-ego, Mickey Mouse.  A little guy who can overcome adversity with determination and ingenuity, Mickey was so close to Walt's heart that for years Walt Disney provided Mickey's voice.  Years later Walt Disney would remind people that the Disney empire "Was all started by a mouse."
