Date Sold 2/28/2016 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. 16 Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Movie Stills and Supplements (Learn More) Doctor Dolittle, the 1967 Richard Fleischer romantic family musical fantasy adventure comedy ("The most joyous entertainment for the whole family!"; "Ride across the sea inside the Giant Pink Sea Snail!"; "Escape a shipwreck and travel on a floating island with cannibals who perform Shakespeare!"; "Join the Fabulous Circus with the only Pushmi-Pullyu in captivity"; "Learn to talk in 500 animal languages from a parrot who speaks 1000!"; "You've never seen anything like it in your life!"; "The gaiety and romance of the world of Doctor Dolittle enhanced by 14 glorious songs."; nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award; about a man who suddenly has the ability to talk to animals) starring Rex Harrison (in the title role as Dr. Doolittle), Samantha Eggar, Anthony Newley, Richard Attenborough ("as 'Blossom'"), and Peter Bull. Note that this movie was officially released in December of 1967 (to qualify for the Oscars), but this roadshow version under-performed at the box office, and an edited version was finally given a general release a year later in December 1968, and that continued into 1969. One could argue that the "regular" release posters from December 1968 and 1969 are from a sort of "continuous first release", but we are calling them a re-release ("R69") because of the long delay between the roadshow release and the regular release.

Important Added Info: Note that these stills are from the personal collection of Nevart Apikian, who wrote an entertainment column for the Syracuse Post Standard for nearly 50 years. They were acquired from her estate after her passing. In the case of these particular stills, they come together with material she received from the studio about this movie, which they sent to her along with the stills, in hopes she would write a column about the movie! We have not pictured the supplements, but they will be sent to the winner of this auction. SUPER IMPORTANT! THOUGH ONLY EIGHT OF THE STILLS ARE PICTURED, THE HIGH BIDDER ON THIS LOT WILL RECEIVE 16 STILLS FROM THIS MOVIE (but realize that on some of these lots with 9 or more stills there may be a few duplicates, mostly on post-1960 lots)! We realize there is an element of gambling to this, but we made only a small effort to find the best stills in these lots, and, if you have any willingness to gamble at all, you may find that you get some great stills that were not pictured! Please do NOT bid on this lot unless you can accept that you are only seeing eight of the stills. Condition: very good. Learn More about condition grades
