Item Description
16.25x24.25" paper sign from 1934 promoting the debut of Disney Cut-Outs on Post cereal boxes. General Foods Post Toasties Corn Flakes cereal boxes featured Disney Cut-Outs through 1941. Sign features image of Mickey holding scroll which reads "Mickey Mouse Or Other Walt Disney Cut-Outs Now On Every Package" w/additional text "Cut Them Off The Box Today." Mickey is joined by Goofy and Pluto and art includes partial image of front and back of a box featuring these cut-outs. Lower right corner has designated area for price but remains unused. Folded as issued, w/scattered trace of wear. Top margin has slight trim and pinhole at center. Scattered traces of aging but remains bright and bold w/great color. Fine overall. A stunning sign, only the second example of this rare promotional item we’ve offered in our 46 years, the previous example selling for $1,075.
