An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Three-Sheet Movie Poster (3sh; measures 41" x 81" [104 x 206 cm]) (Learn More) African Holiday, the 1937 Harry C. Pearson Africa safari hunting expedition documentary ("Photographed in Africa by Mr. and Mrs. Harry C. Pearson") narrated by Harry C. Pearson. The Pearsons were a married couple who got the idea to take a massive trip all over the African continent, and to film their travels. When they returned after seven months in Africa (having traveled over 5,000 miles and covering almost the entire continent), they assembled their footage into this documentary! During their travels, they saw pygmies and Latukas (who averaged over seven feet tall!), and many very rare animals. We don't know what else this remarkable couple accomplished in their lifetime, because we could not find other information about them, but it appears that this is their only movie, so they are not like the other famous married couples that made African movies (like Armand Denis and his two wives, and Martin Johnson and his wife Osa). If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that ANY movie paper items from this movie are incredibly rare. We have only previously auctioned a few lobby cards from this movie (and NO other movie paper of any kind) until we received this three-sheet! Also note that this three-sheet was printed in 2 sections designed to overlap. Condition: good. The poster is fragile and it has tiny tears and tiny bits of paper loss on parts of the borders and folds. Learn More about condition grades
