TREASURE ISLAND (1950) 14125

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

Original U.S. Insert card for the Walt Disney film TREASURE ISLAND (1950) starring Robert Newton and Bobby Driscoll. The Robert Louis Stevenson classic tale of pirates on the high seas comes alive in this fondly remembered Disney version, filmed in England in 1950. Robert Newton as Long John Silver is certainly one of the quintessential pirate roles. And Bobby Driscoll was the in-house Disney kid seen in SONG OF THE SOUTH. This insert is in lovely condition. Folded, but very fine plus. Arrrggghh!

ANDROCLES AND THE LION (1952) 9177

Original RKO One Sheet Poster (27×41) for the Chester Erskine comedy, ANDROCLES AND THE LION (1952)—starring Jean Simmons, Victor Mature, and Alan Young. Based on the play by George Bernard Shaw, this is the story of the Christian Androcles, who one day removes a huge thorn from the paw of a lion, creating a friend for life. Androcles is arrested along with other Christians and condemned to death in the arena, where his life friend the lion refuses to kill him. Shaw was always hesitant about allowing his plays to be made into films. He found a competent producer in Gabriel Pascal, who loved Shaw’s works. Shaw gave him a contract to produce all his plays, including this one that was made after Shaw’s death. This original one sheet poster is folded and in fine condition—with only some scribbling on the reverse side, minor fold separation at the fold intersection, and minor smudges.
