>miro lines makes me think didgi tal print.. you could get a example
at kinkos orperhaps online?
the In houseprinting is a wild goose chase as most studios job out to
a variety of printers jsust like the movie posterswhere done.. the
stome lithohave that signture stone pebbled dotmatrix wich is just
thst the slabs where acide etched into the stone so its the natural
stone we see.. the reg litho was a screen dot pattern and they call
thatlines as fars as the size like a newspaper was like 80- 110 they
have improved in recent years. comic books where a 4 color .. and
pretty broad dots like I think 80
I use 110 -130 on screen printing and sometimes Ive had to use
elipitcal dots
the paper should also give you a hint however they did have coaated
stock in 30s butmost was flat.. in Maga they had coated. and as for
size they had some HUGEmagazines like exhibiotors news. ot film daily
had some big ones.. Bruce may be of some help on this.
the Disney in house stuff I just have no idea of who printed it but
suspect they had outside sources although In early days many also had
some inhouse capabilities I would bet.
Im leaning its one of the reprints however anything is possible and
hope you find the answer soon.
the 11 x 17 is so standard in the reprints. like the 20 x 28 in Portal
portal btw printed on a heavy flat stock in the start and thats why
peopel think they are old and real,, as time went on they went to
enamel coated stock like 80 lb or 100 lb weight... like in 80s.. But
portal started in the 50s 60s with Bullfight posters and the
original owner now makes many of the digital prints sold in Museums
and all.
