Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs

Burbank, CA: Walt Disney, Circa 1937. Vintage color British front-of-house card from the 1937 film.

Disney’s first full length animated feature, and one of the first animated feature films period, "Snow White" cost over $1.5 million, a huge sum at the time, and took three years to complete. Despite the risk (both Disney’s wife and brother tried to talk him out of producing it), the film was an immediate success both critically and financially, was nominated for an Academy Award in 1937, and in 1938, received an honorary Oscar, humorously presented as a full-sized statuette and seven miniature ones.

8 x 10 inches. Very Good plus, with creasing at the corners.
