Three-Sheets: As the name implies, these posters are stunningly larger than the normal one-sheet by about 3 times the size (41" x 81"). Printed in two (and sometimes three) separate pieces, they would be hung in the front lobby or on the outside of the theater. Never produced in very large quantities, three-sheets can be quite rare.
From the 1952 re-release of the movie. Poster is marked R-51.
This three-sheet was listed on the back cover of the 1952 Snow White pressbook.
