  Cinderella

  £75.00

  “Here to set a spark in your heart and a sparkle in your eye…the world’s best-loved story…told with Walt Disney’s wizardry!”

  A beautiful, colourful masterpiece of a poster for Walt Disney’s beloved animated fairytale classic “Cinderella”. Originally premiered in 1950 this superb Japanese B2 is from the 1982 re-release in Japan and focuses on the famous scene as Cinderella meets her true love, the Prince (although often referred to as Prince Charming, he is only ever called the Prince in the movie). As you would expect from a Disney offering artwork is of the highest quality and colours truly bright and vibrant. Marvellous border art of the supporting characters with the fairytale castle acting as a romantic backdrop with the dance floor transformed to a clock face about to strike midnight all offset by a night sky full of bright, shooting stars. Originally rolled (as issued) and unrestored this beautiful example presents very well and displays to excellent effect with colourful imagery exclusively created for this Japanese re-release. A fine example of rare and collectable original movie memorabilia for a much loved Disney classic.

  Trivia: The clothing of Cinderella in the film has attracted the attention of some fashion and art historians. The dress that the stepsister tears apart is thought to be inspired by the designs of Salvador Dalí and the magical gown is in the then contemporary style of Christian Dior.

Final negative cost of Dumbo was $813,000 (making it the least expensive of all Disney’s animated features), and it grossed over $2.5 million in its original release (more than the original grosses of “Pinocchio” and “Fantasia” combined).
