The Mousecar is an in-house award given by The Walt Disney Company for a variety of reasons, including service to the company as well as to the community as a whole. The award was first presented by Disney founder Walt Disney to his brother Roy O. Disney in 1947. In 2005, Riley Thomson's Mousecar was auctioned for $5,358. In 2013 Bernie Cobb's Mousecar was auctioned for $8,531. Origin of the word "Mousecar" is a combination of the words "Oscar" and "Mouse" (as in Mickey Mouse).
