An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Style A Jumbo Movie Window Card (WC; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More) Mighty Joe Young, the classic 1949 Ernest B. Schoedsack fantasy animal gorilla ape thriller ("Striking! Startling! Staggering!"; "Merian Cooper's amazing adventure in the unusual!"; "Staggering sensation! Electrifying excitement!"; "The ten most terrific thrills ever pictured"; "The cyclonic cavalcade of electrifying sensations that makes your eyes pop out and your heart skip a beat!"; produced by John Ford & Merian C. Cooper; with special effects by Ray Harryhausen, in his first movie, and "Technical Creator Willis O'Brien", creator of King Kong!) starring Terry Moore, Ben Johnson, Robert Armstrong, Frank McHugh, Douglas Fowley, Paul Guilfoyle, Nestor Paiva, and Pat Barton. Note that Ray Harryhausen was sadly not given any credit on the posters for this movie, likely because he was unknown at this time, but Willis O'Brien was credited, no doubt in the hopes that people would remember him from King Kong!

Important Added Info: Bizarrely, the theater added a "IT'S ALIVE!" snipe to the upper left area (I imagine it could be removed, but to me, it is a really cool addition to the poster, because I am not clear what they were hoping people viewing the window card would think!). Also note that this jumbo window card was never folded. Sometimes jumbo window cards would be folded across the middle, because that would make them 11" x 14", and they could then be sent with standard folded posters. Most collectors put an added value on a jumbo window card that has never been folded. Condition: very good. The jumbo window card was never folded. It has some smudges, creases, and tiny tears around the edges with very tiny paper loss in the bottom right corner. Learn More about condition grades
