Date Sold 12/20/2022Sold 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) Rupert the Runt, the 1940 Mannie Davis Terrytoon cartoon animation short produced by Paul Terry. Note that this is a 1939 stock poster used by theaters that showed Terrytoons. Note that the part of the poster that was not intended for a specific cartoon includes images of some of Paul Terry's earlier cartoon characters including Gandy Goose, and a cool two-headed giant, and that this specific stock poster has been overprinted with a great image from "Rupert the Runt"! Paul Terry created a different "stock" poster for each year from 1937 through 1940 (there may have been ones from earlier or later years, but we have never encountered them). Each had a completely different great image, showing many of his top cartoon stars of that year, and there was 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, and ALSO usually add a single-color image from that cartoon (unusual for stock cartoon posters), and then they would print another group of the posters with a different cartoon title and image, and so on. This particular poster WAS overprinted with a specific title (most of the ones we have seen WERE overprinted). NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had fine surface paper loss on parts of the folds, with a few creases and tears around the edges. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well! Learn More about condition grades
