An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Walt Disney's Davy Crockett, King of the Wild Frontier, the classic 1955 Norman Foster Walt Disney cowboy western adventure thriller ("...Story of a fabulous fighting man!"; "Now... On the Motion Picture Screen!"; "Color by Technicolor, Wide Screen"; "Adapted from the original 'Disneyland' Television Productions") starring Fess Parker (in the title role as Davy Crockett), Buddy Ebsen, William Bakewell, Basil Ruysdael, Pat Hogan (as Chief Red Stick), Mike Mazurki, and Nick Cravat. Note that this was originally three episodes of the Disneyland TV series (more commonly known as "The Wonderful World of Disney"). A year after the three episodes aired, someone at Disney had the great idea to release the three as a feature film, and it was hugely successful, in spite of the fact that over half of the U.S. had seen the movie for free when it had aired on TV the year before! 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: good. The poster had small pencil letters written in the top of each of the letters of the title. It also had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds, minor wear on the foldlines, and some pinholes, stains, and small areas of paper loss around the edges. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but the restorer did not address the small pencil letters in the title (oddly, they are not that noticeable, and a restorer could touch up those areas without re-backing the poster, but bear this defect and possible expense in mind before bidding on this poster).
