"Cinderella" (1950) [Series] - Promotional Stills

A series of "Cinderella" items in the Cowan Collection.


The following publicity stills were from another scrapbook we acquired in 2003. Generally speaking, I've thought these stills were odd choices. I'm not sure they represented some of the best moments or best examples of the characters. Some were quite good, but others.... But, hey, I've never said that I was a PR guy.

Sorry about the hue on these. I posted them "as is" rather than convert them to gray scale. In these images there is a pink hue to them that is not present in the originals, but there are other yellowish hues due to fading (I would guess too little time in the "fix" and not enough washing of the prints).

"Cinderella" was the first Disney animated feature to be completely shot and then edited in a live-action reference version before being committed to cel and ink. Ilene Woods was the voice of Cinderella. Actress Helene Stanley performed the live-action reference not only for Cinderella, but also for Princess Aurora in "Sleeping Beauty" and Anita Radcliff in "101 Dalmatians."
