Auction History Result 6c051 TERROR OF TINY TOWN linen 3sh 1938 Jed Buell's Midgets in 10 gallon hats, wild & beyond rare! Date Sold 5/3/2018 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Three-Sheet Movie Poster (3sh; measures 41" x 81" [104 x 206 cm]) (Learn More) The Terror of Tiny Town, the bizarre cult classic 1938 Sam Newfield musical cowboy western comedy ("These Tom Thumbs are colossal!"; "Half-pints in 10-gallon hats! First time on the screen!"; "Rip-snortin' all-midget action show! First time on any screen!"; "All-midget cast! First time on the screen! Fighting... singing... loving!") starring Jed Buell's Midgets, Billy Curtis, Yvonne Moray, 'Little Billy' Rhodes, Billy Platt, and John T. Bambury. Note that director Sam Newfield had the novel idea of filming a western where the entire cast was played by little people (Jed Buell's Midgets among others). It may not be among the greatest movies ever made, but it certainly is high on the list of the most unusual movies ever made! Also note that some of the cast members of this movie would have a far better role the following year, when they were cast as Munchkins in MGM's classic "The Wizard of Oz"! If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that first release movie paper items from this bizarre movie are beyond rare! We had never sold anything from it except for a few lobby cards, and the last time we had one of those was 11 years ago. In 2015, we were consigned this wonderful three-sheet, and the person who purchased it at that auction has re-consigned it to us, so it is still the only movie poster from this movie we have auctioned (and it may well be many years before we are consigned any other movie posters from this movie!). What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had small paper loss at some crossfolds and some creases, tears, and tiny paper loss on parts of some foldlines, with some pinholes 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
