An Original 1956 (from the first release of this movie in Italy) Vintage Theatrical Folded Italian Two-Panel (known in Italy as a "4 Fogli") Movie Poster (2p; measures 55" x 78" [140 x 198 cm]) (Learn More)

Walt Disney's Davy Crockett, King of the Wild Frontier, the classic 1955 Norman Foster Walt Disney cowboy western adventure thriller ("...Story of a fabulous fighting man!"; "Now... On the Motion Picture Screen!"; "Color by Technicolor, Wide Screen"; "Adapted from the original 'Disneyland' Television Productions") starring Fess Parker (in the title role as Davy Crockett), Buddy Ebsen, William Bakewell, Basil Ruysdael, Pat Hogan (as Chief Red Stick), Mike Mazurki, and Nick Cravat. Note that this was originally three episodes of the Disneyland TV series (more commonly known as "The Wonderful World of Disney"). A year after the three episodes aired, someone at Disney had the great idea to release the three as a feature film, and it was hugely successful, in spite of the fact that over half of the U.S. had seen the movie for free when it had aired on TV the year before!

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that we have only auctioned one example of this extremely rare poster in all our years of auctioning (and now that very same poster has been reconsigned to us for this auction, so it is still the only example we have ever auctioned)! Also note that this Italian two-panel was printed in 2 sections designed to overlap.

Note that it is difficult to accurately date Italian posters, and some unmarked re-release posters can be extremely difficult to distinguish from first releases, so please bear that in mind before you place a bid. We used our best information to date this poster, but we can't always guarantee that the Italian posters we sell are not from an unmarked re-release, but this will only prove to be true in a very tiny number of cases.

Note that this Italian poster WAS folded in half "an extra time", as some Italian posters are. This means it has more folds than those posters which were NOT folded an extra time, but it also means that it can be sent in a standard flat package, while those that were NOT folded an extra time must be sent in a larger flat package that measures approximately 15" x 23". We list the two types separately by how they are folded, so that you can more easily know which kind of shipping each type requires.

Condition: fair to good.
