1951-52 Press Kit Photos

The 1952 US theatrical re-release of Snow White occurred on February 13th of that year. However, the promotional materials for this campaign were issued in 1951 and thus are dated so, "R51". The following is a series of 10 press kit 8x10 photos (glossy B&W).

Over the years, all of these classic images have been utilized by Disney in a myriad of ways, e.g. storybooks, puzzles, greeting cards, clothing items, and much more--including press kit photos for other re-releases.

    Very interesting selection of still photographs including the Tenggren drawing of the dwarfs marching across the log and the illustrations from the large Whitman book , including the illustration of the Witch being attacked by the birds outside the cottage! Once again a big thank you to you Robert for your exhaustive research into our joint obsession of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs!

      Thank you Wobble for your nice comments and for your continued support. There wouldn't be a Snow White Archive without the support of so many generous folks out there. More good things to come!
