1937 Mechanical Snow White Birthday Card

This Snow White birthday card is dated 1937, from the time of the world premiere of the Disney film. Yet, although there are clear similarities in how the princess is drawn, this is not a Disney licensed product. The die-cut mechanical card (5.5" x 4.5") features a hidden wheel that when turned, reveals in the doorway each of the seven generic dwarfs with their own birthday greeting.

The first dwarf wishes you joy.

The second brings greetings.

The third wishes you gladness.

The fourth says "cheerio" & the fifth hopes you'll be happy.

The sixth wishes you good fortune & the seventh knows you'll have fun.

Inside.

Manufacturer imprint on back of card, This'll Win--Messengers of Sunshine.
