    Description

    THIS IS NOT A BOOK COVER - THIS IS A LARGE ORIGINAL ADVERTISEMENT PIECE PRODUCED AND USED BY THE DISNEY COMPANY IN 1973!
    Up for grabs is an extremely rare piece of Disney advertising, memorabilia and art. This large advertisement was created directly from the Walt Disney Company back in 1973 in order to promote their now, famed book 'The Art Of Walt Disney, From Mickey Mouse to the Magic Kingdoms'.
    The colors are absolutely beautiful and it was created/printed on canvas. It is said and believed that this piece would have hung at Disneyland or Disneyworld in 1973, in order to promote the book.
    Created by the Walt Disney company themselves...as there is a Walt Disney Productions copyright mark located next to Mickey's feet on the piece.
    The piece is quite large, measuring 36" x 39".
    Condition: The piece was clearly tacked and hung as pin holes are shown in all four corners. Since I have owned this piece, I have not taken it out of the sealed plastic protection, but it would appear that someone at some point back in the day - applied some sort of tape to the back, creating a border around the piece (on the back). My only guess is that would have been done to prevent tearing when hung on display at the theme park.
    I could only imagine how amazing this piece would look professionally framed.
    A one of a kind piece of Disney advertising memorabilia with quite the amazing history as it was created by Disney themselves to promote one of the most iconic art books of all time!
