The Ellenshaw Museum: Darby O’Gill and the Little People (1959)

The curator of the Ellenshaw Museum has finally informed us they are back open for business!

To be honest, I didn’t get to spend much time there this morning.  In fact, I just got into the front door, saw the crowds… took in one picture from DARBY O’GILL and headed back out to re-ride Minnow Mania and prepare for Starfish Weekends.

As we’ve discussed in an earlier post, Darby O’Gill boasted some of the most spectacular special effects and still stand up almost 50 years later.  Although Ellenshaw had to strecth his special effects creativity into different arenas, he still gave some of his tried and true matte paintings.. like the one above.

If you’d like to see more exhibits from the Ellenshaw Museum, use the search engine at right with the word “Ellenshaw”

  I am so glad they are back opened for business. I am equally happy that Jim did not destroy any more of the glass.
