Dumbo, the classic 1941 Ben Sharpsteen Walt Disney family animated animation circus elephant cartoon ("Walt Disney's Full-Length Feature in Technicolor"; "New all-Disney feature that's all-out fun!"; "Here comes glorious magic minutes 'away from it all!'"; "Casey Junior, the happy little circus train that talks!"; "See Dumbo, the ugly-duckling baby elephant whose ears were too big for his happiness. yeah. You'll love him!"; "See Timothy Q. Mouse, the tiny terror of the big top - Dumbo's only pal!"; "See Pink Elephants on Parade - and believe it or not!"; "See The Five Black Crows, the raucous quintet that gives the blues the bird!"; "See The Biggest Littlest Show on Earth... in winter quarters, in training and giving performances on tour!"; "See all the wonders, excitement, and action... the clowns, menagerie.... the parachute battalion of storks... all the marvels of the circus plus the charm that only Disney can create when he lets himself go!"; "3-Ring feature length production"; "It's the screen's greatest adventure in enchantment!"; "Here's Disney with the brakes off... the Big-Top with the lid off. A three-ring circus that rings with laughter and song! With Dumbo heading a host of lovable creatures including: tiny Timothy Q. Mouse; the raucous 5 Black Crows; Casey Junior, the talking engine; the dive-bombing Storks; dancing Pink Elephants. All-out fun for all!"; "It's Disney on the loose in a circus of surprises. With Dumbo, the baby elephant, flying on floppy ears... cuter and dumber than Dopey! And tiny Timothy Mouse! And Casey Junior, the talking locomotive! The comical Black Crows, dive-bombing Storks, dancing Pink Elephants! You'll love them all!") featuring the voices of Sterling Holloway, Verna Felton, Herman Bing, Edward Brophy, and Cliff Edwards. Note that Mel Blanc is credited in IMDb as the voice of Dumbo, which is interesting, since the elephant has no lines of dialogue!

Important Added Info: Note that this wonderful key book still shows a theater playing Dumbo. Since it says "POPULAR PRICES" on the marquee, we would think it is not from the opening of the movie, but there is also a limousine parked in the front and someone is getting out, obviously to see the movie, so we don't really know! If anyone knows more about this great still, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Also note that this special auction contains many great animation stills. We guarantee that all of them are original to the year we say they are from. But it is a nice plus that a lot of them are "key book" stills (see below), which further guarantees their originality (and, as noted below, they are far more rare than non-key book stills from the same movie)! Note that this item is in eMoviePoster.com's special "all animation" auction! The idea for this auction began when we were consigned a remarkable collection of original 1940s Walt Disney pressbooks, mini lobby cards, and standees (and almost all of those are extremely rare ones that are hardly ever auctioned, and they almost all are in really nice condition). Once we knew we had those items, we contacted all our past consignors, and asked them to consign to this very special auction, and they REALLY came through, consigning a wonderful assortment of cartoon movie paper of all sorts. Buying from this special auction gives you an incredibly rare opportunity to obtain some of the finest cartoon animation movie paper we have ever seen, and all of them will have new owners when these auctions close, because all start at $1 with no reserve. Many of these items will likely not be auctioned again for many years to come! Also note that this still is a key book still, mounted to a linen backing. Many studios spent extra money to have their most special photos, the key book stills, either backed with linen or printed on a heavy paper, both of which enhanced their durability. They had an extra 1" at the left or top, with punch holes, because of how they were stored. Key book stills are far more rare than regular stills, which has increased their popularity among collectors, since only a few keybooks were manufactured per film, and a key book still is guaranteed to be authentic.
