Hi, still looking for a scanned copy of the original Derann DUMBO cover art.

Thanks

It seems no one can make a scan of it... never mind!

I will create by myself...

Flavio,

I wish that I could help,
because my Derann release of Dumbo
was shipped in white boxes.

Hello Flavio

I'm certain you will find no original box art exists for the Dumbo feature as it was an imported print rather than part of the Disney Super 8 feature range - you could use a different Disney label and scan it as a template then add the Dumbo video cover and text or similar.

Michael, thanks anyway...

Kevin, I saw this great Kevin's photo here

and now I would like to have the same collection!
Here you can see the DUMBO box exists... [Wink]

Cheers
Flavio

Hello Flavio

I still reckon the Dumbo box cover art in the picture has been constructed using a scanned original box as a template to match the other Disney covers such as Toy Story - contact Kev Faulkner to see if he can clarify this and I will be happy to eat the proverbial 'humble pie' if I am wrong!

Flavio,

Hmmm, that does look nice,
appealing and interesting,
and understand that it's a great
way to display this feature.

I do not have that either. [Frown]

Unfair!

That image from Kev's collection, looks identical to
the box that was on the video release
here in the U.S.A.

Incidentally, this reminds me that
the Derann feature of the Wizard of Oz,
had the identical box cover that was on
the 400 foot Ken films MGM film digest!
