Not much I can say but your research is great. Now I know more about these posters, and it's great to see the differences side by side. Your work is always appreciated even if I just sit here and silently view it.

No comments from anyone . How so disappointing. 

 ( Everyones May 26, 1937 edition / Trove )

The Country Cousin ( 1936 ) Everyones poster advertisement for a United Artists Silly Symphony cartoon.

I have never sighted a United Artists Silly Symphony colour daybill poster. One has to wonder if the above image is what an actual daybill of The Country Cousin may have looked like if one had been actually printed. 

To date the only United Artists Walt Disney product daybill located is the following stock poster.



A question to be asked then is did the UA released Silly Symphony cartoon films also have their own stock poster in addition to the above New Mickey Mouse stock poster?


United Artists distributed its last Walt Disney Silly Symphony film in 1937  Following this RKO Radio then acquired  the distribution of Walt Disney product commencing in the same year.

The following are three of the Silly Symphony films that RKO  released in the late 1930's, and their Australian printed  daybills,


   



The following is interesting. The U.S.A. one sheet credits it as being ''A Micky Mouse'', yet the Australia daybill credits it as being a Silly Symphony.

 







 

A U.K. trade publication advertisement placed for Silly Symphony product, calling it Silly Symphonies though. Comparing the above  Australian daybill with the U.K. material one notices the similar Mickey Mouse pose on both posters. and wording. 

My final comment then is considering the above Goofy And Wilbur posters, as well as the above U.K. material, was then perhaps all the Australian Silly Symphony UA released product titles just added to the above daybill when they were released here?

Love to hear your thoughts.
