An Original 1976 (from the first release of this movie in Cuba) Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Cuban Movie Poster (measures 20" x 30" [51 x 76 cm]) (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.

Artist: Eduardo Munoz Bachs Important Added Info: Note that silkscreen (also known as screen printing) is a printing technique whereby a mesh is used to transfer ink onto a poster. Only one color is printed at a time, so several screens must be used to produce a multicolored design, and it is a laborious technique because it is traditionally all done by hand. Because of the rich thickness of the layer of color on the paper and the resulting depth and brilliance achieved through silkscreen printing, this technique was preferred by many artists throughout many cultures and periods. Condition: good. There is spotty discoloration at right (see our image). Learn More about condition grades
