Gertie the Dinosaur, One-Sheet

A dinosaur lifts a motor car.

What

A 1914 U.S. one-sheet for Winsor McCay's animated short Gertie the Dinosaur, released through Box Office Attraction Co.

Why

The Commons scan comes from John Canemaker's 2005 book Winsor McCay: His Life and Art.

Notice

The headline reads "WINSOR McCAY'S 'GERTIE' WONDERFULLY TRAINED DINOSAURUS", McCay's portrait sits in a frame at the top left, and a caption by the dinosaur's feet says "GERTIE JUST LOVES AN AUTO."

“A dinosaur loose in town”
