Item Details
Description
(Disneyland, 1969) An original hand-painted on canvas "stretching portrait" used within Disneyland's "Haunted Mansion" attraction. As the elevator descends, the portraits would "stretch" to reveal their full image. However, the consistent "stretching would cause some wear to the canvas, and these portraits would need to be replaced. From 1969 to 1972, the portraits, with imagery designed by Imagineer Marc Davis, were all hand-painted whereas later versions were printed. This stretching portrait depicts a woman on her husband's tombstone. The canvas measures 114"x35" and the portrait is in very good condition with some wear from use. These portraits are exceptionally rare and sought-after artifacts from the earliest years of the "Haunted Mansion".
