Auction History Result 2t127 GABRIEL OVER THE WHITE HOUSE WC '33 art of President Walter Huston over downtrodden crowd! Date Sold 11/18/2008 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Window Card Movie Poster (WC; measures 14" x 22") (Learn More) Gabriel Over the White House, the classic 1933 Gregory La Cava religious political fantasy melodrama (based on the novels by T.F. Tweed; about an angel that transforms a newly inaugurated corrupt president into an idealistic wonderful president who helps the United States out of the Great Depression through bold sweeping changes that no politician has ever done, but only after he dies, and is resurrected by the angel!) starring Walter Huston (as the President), Karen Morley, Franchot Tone, Arthur Byron, Dickie Moore, Jean Parker, and David Landau. Note that this was an exceptionally unusual movie, especially to have come from a major Hollywood studio. It is rare that politics, fantasy, and religion cross in a single movie, and this movie had major elements of all three! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: This window card was never folded. Often window cards would be folded across the middle, because that would make them 11" x 14", and they could then be sent with standard folded posters. Most collectors put an added value on a window card that has never been folded. Condition: very good to fine. Note that the card measures very slightly under 14" x 22" (an extremely tiny amount in each direction!) and has next-to-no left, right, or bottom blank borders, but it has NOT been trimmed (this was done at a time when MGM was experimenting with having as few borders as possible). There is a 1" tear near the center of the bottom border, but otherwise, the card is in quite nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
