Very good. Size 14 x 24 Inches. This is a 1952 Walt Disney Productions pictorial map of Never Never Island from the movie Peter Pan . It is the first printed map of Disney's Never Never Island, published one year before the 1953 film Peter Pan was released. Recognizable locales include Mermaid Cove, Skull Island, and the Indian Camp. No characters from the movie appear, but they were incorporated in later editions. Peter Pan Peter Pan is a c. 1900 fictional character created by Scottish novelist and playwright J. M. Barrie. He is a free-spirited and mischievous boy who can fly and famously 'never grows up'. He spends his eternal childhood having adventures on the island of Neverland as the leader of the 'Lost Boys' - all orphans like him. His adventures include fairies, pirates, mermaids, Native Americans, and occasionally ordinary children from the mundane world. The character emerged with Barrie's The Little White Bird (1902), a dark adult novel. Peter Pan appeared for the first time on screen in a 1924 American silent adventure by Paramount Pictures. Walt Disney acquired the rights to Peter Pan from Paramount in 1939. Disney immediately began working on an animated feature, but the U.S. Government commandeered his studios to produce World War II training and propaganda footage. Production resumed in earnest after the war, and the more child-friendly, playful Peter Pan was released in 1953. Disneyland opened a little over a year later in 1955, and a Peter Pan was one of the core attractions.
