An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Swedish Movie Poster (measures 26 3/4" x 39" [68 x 99 cm]) (Learn More)

Woody Woodpecker is the animated cartoon bird created by Walter Lantz & Ben 'Bugs' Hardaway in 1940 for Walter Lantz Animation Studio. At first, the voice of Woody was supplied by Mel Blanc, but after several other people filled that position, Walter Lantz' wife, Grace Stafford, got the job! A balloon featuring the character has long been a staple of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade and he has a star on on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. He also appeared in many comic books.

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.

Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this Swedish poster, which is a stock poster from Universal Studios designed to be displayed by Swedish theaters when they showed Woody Woodpecker cartoons! Also note that this Swedish poster has been trimmed and it now measures 26 3/4" x 39" [68 x 99 cm].
