Popeye the Sailor is a series of animated short subjects based on the fictional cartoon character created by Elzie Crisler Segar. In 1933, Max and Dave Fleischer’s Fleischer Studios adapted Segar’s characters into a series of Popeye the Sailor theatrical cartoon shorts for Paramount Pictures. This stock 40″ X 60″ cartoon movie poster, with a large and fantastic image of Popeye, was used to promote all of the early Popeye cartoons in 1934. There are only 2 known copies of this rare poster. It has been de-acidified and linen backed.
