Hi Dave; Not sure about the size, but Disney did produce glossy posters and lobby cards in the 1950s, as did Howard Hughes at RKO and occasionally - MGM.

Almost everything about it is correct: the art , 56/77 NSS number (no "R" in front of the number, though), Buena Vista logo, machine folded. Two curious things about it: First, it is printed on glossy stock. Was Disney ever known to print 1-sheets on glossy stock in the 50s? Second, it measures 27x39 and doesn't appear to be trimmed. Is it possible there was a repro issued of this poster in the 70s or 80s and that's what I have? If so, I can't find anything that matches it online. Anyway, if anyone could help me out with this, I'd appreciate it.
