Date Sold 12/3/2019Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Insert Movie Poster (measures 14" x 36" [36 x 91 cm]) (Learn More) Swiss Family Robinson, the 1940 Edward Ludwig shipwrecked stranded-on-a-tropical-island family adventure thriller ("Come Along to Action - Thrills and Excitement on ADVENTURE ISLAND!"; from the book of the same name by Johann David Wyss) starring Thomas Mitchell, Edna Best, Freddie Bartholomew, Terry Kilburn, Tim Holt, and Baby Bobby Quillan. Note that legend has it that when Walt Disney made their live action version of this movie in 1960, they also purchased the rights to this movie from 1940, and then destroyed all known prints, so that their version would not be compared to this! Is this urban legend or partially or completely true? Does that mean this is a "lost" film? If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare poster. We have only auctioned two in all our years of auctioning and the last time was in 2009! Note also that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: good. There is separation along the upper horizontal fold of the poster that is repaired with tape from the back and there is lesser separation along the lower horizontal fold that is similarly repaired. After proper restoration the poster will look fantastic, but bear in mind the poster's condition and the cost of restoration before bidding on it. Learn More about condition grades
