Auction History Result 6h1009 TERRY-TOONS linen 1sh 1942 Mighty Mouse as Super Mouse & Gandy Goose, The Helicopter, rare! Date Sold 4/14/2024 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Terry-toons, a 1942 stock poster used by theaters that show Terrytoons. What makes this Terry-Toons stock poster so cool is that it has the very first incarnation of Mighty Mouse, when he was still called Super Mouse. Super Mouse was created in 1942 (as a parody of Superman, who had started in 1938) and they changed his name because of a character of the same name that started at the same time in Coo Coo Comics. This poster also shows Gandy Goose, forgotten today, but a big Terry-Toon cartoon character in his day! Note that Paul Terry created a different "stock" poster for each year from 1937 through 1942. Each would have a completely different great image, showing many of his top cartoon stars of that year, and there would be a blank center area in each poster. After the posters were initially printed, they would overprint a group of the posters with a title of a particular cartoon from that year. 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 we have only previously auctioned two examples of this cool stock one-sheet! Also note that this stock poster is advertising the 1944 cartoon "The Helicopter" and that title has been overprinted in the white square in the center of the poster. What IS linenbacking?
