An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Lobby Card (LC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) The Brave Tin Soldier, the 1934 Ub Iwerks, Shamus Cuhane & Al Eugster ComiColor musical animated animation cartoon (based on the fairy tale by Hans Christian Anderson). After being instrumental in the creation of Mickey Mouse for Walt Disney, Ub Iwerks (full name Ubbe Iwerks) was hired away from Disney by P.A. Powers of Celebrity Productions to create a series of cartoons based on classic fairy tales (Iwerks was able to be hired away, both because he did not share in the financial rewards that Disney obtained from his work on Mickey Mouse and other early Disney characters, and also because Iwerks was barely credited for his work). Iwerks not only drew the ComiColor cartoons, but he also drew the one-sheets (and a 4-card full-color lobby card set) created to promote each of them. Unfortunately, this series of cartoons did not perform well at the box office, and late in the series, they switched from individual one-sheets for each cartoon to a stock poster with different titles printed in the middle. After 25 cartoons, Powers folded Celebrity Productions and Iwerks was forced to return to Disney. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that ANY movie paper items from this movie are incredibly rare. We have only previously auctioned a single lobby card (we auctioned that same card twice, and it was a different image from that of this card) from this movie (and NO other movie paper of any kind) until we received this lobby card! Note that this auction also includes the printed bag this item originally came with! Also note that we have a scan of both the front and the back of this lobby card, which should greatly help you see what defects it has. Condition: good to very good. The card has darkened, typical of these Ub Iwerks 1930s lobby cards. The back of the card had discolored very unusually, perhaps while it was in a frame. The front of the card had creases in the top left corner, with tiny paper loss in the top left corner, and someone restored that area without backing the card. Learn More about condition grades
