Original U.S. One-Sheet Poster (27x41) Folded Very Good Plus Condition
Walt Disney Company Original U.S. One-Sheet Poster for the Charles Barton directed film THE SHAGGY DOG (1959). The film stars Fred McMurray and Jean Hagen. And it also stars a host of actors associated with Disney films: Tommy Kirk, Annette Funicello, Kevin Corcoran, Robert Shore and Tim Considine. The movie was based on a novel from 1923, "The Hound of Florence" by Felix Salten. It concerns a teenage boy whose dog has supernatural posters conferred on it by The Borgias. Yes, that's right! The film was the first live action comedy film that Disney studio produced. On a budget of just over 1 million bucks, the studio returned almost ten times it's money. No wonder, then, that longtime star Fred McMurray moved from the westerns he'd been making in the 1950s to Disney's in-house, somewhat flappable Father-Professor. It would be a persona that he would carry to television. MovieArt Original Film Posters in Austin, Texas guarantees that this poster is an authentic U.S. poster for this film. The poster has some tears at the fold, and we have grade it in very good condition. Colors are vivid. MovieArt Original Film Posters does not sell reproductions.
