An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Style C Window Card Movie Poster (WC; measures 14" x 22" [36 x 56 cm]) (Learn More) Mighty Joe Young, the classic 1949 Ernest B. Schoedsack fantasy animal gorilla ape thriller ("Striking! Startling! Staggering!"; "Merian Cooper's amazing adventure in the unusual!"; "Staggering sensation! Electrifying excitement!"; "The ten most terrific thrills ever pictured"; "The cyclonic cavalcade of electrifying sensations that makes your eyes pop out and your heart skip a beat!"; produced by John Ford & Merian C. Cooper; with special effects by Ray Harryhausen, in his first movie, and "Technical Creator Willis O'Brien", creator of King Kong!) starring Terry Moore, Ben Johnson, Robert Armstrong, Frank McHugh, Douglas Fowley, Paul Guilfoyle, Nestor Paiva, and Pat Barton. Note that Ray Harryhausen was sadly not given any credit on the posters for this movie, likely because he was unknown at this time, but Willis O'Brien was credited, no doubt in the hopes that people would remember him from King Kong!

Important Added Info: Note that this is a very rare "horizontal" window card (this was sometimes done with Belgian posters, but it is extremely rare for U.S. window cards to be in a horizontal format). Note that this window card was never folded. Often window cards would be folded across the middle, because that would make them 11" x 14", and they could then be sent with standard folded posters. Most collectors put an added value on a window card that has never been folded. Condition: good to very good. The bottom 1/2" of the card was trimmed off. It had some wear in the left and right borders and smudges and stains in the bottom right credits area. A really talented restorer replaced the missing bottom 1/2" without backing the card, and recreated the small writing at the bottom. The card displays really well and it has not been backed.
