I want to study his rough animation drawings. So I'd be very grateful if any of you knew any sources -- in any format, on any media -- where I can see a whole bunch of them.
Thanks!

I don't know if it's still available , but there was a limited-edition book of Tytla's artwork published a few years ago by his widow Adrienne and his son Peter . The book is called "Disney's Giant" .
CartoonBrew had a note about it . Check it out :

I think that at one time Peter Tytla had copies for sale, but I'm not sure about this . You could try contacting him , but this trail may be cold now , since it's been about 3 or 4 years since it was published .

A brilliant start! Thanks again, David!
I guess a lot of the material I'd be looking for is probably locked away forever in a Disney vault with the original negatives of "Song of the South", the leftover pieces of the demolished 20k Leagues Under the Sea ride, and Walt's fabled collection of celebrities' underwear. :(
