[or why I shot my boy friend!]"; "'I was just a lonely, country girl in the big city...'"; "'This was my simple, happy home before fame came to me.'"; "'How was I to know he wasn't a friend?'"; "'The reporters forced themselves upon me!'"; "'...I was thrown into a cold, bare jail cell!'"; "Produced and Written for the Screen by Nunnally Johnson"; "Based upon the play 'Chicago' written by Maurine Watkins") starring Ginger Rogers (in the title role as Roxie Hart), Adolphe Menjou (as Billy Flynn), George Montgomery, Lynne Overman, Nigel Bruce, Sara Allgood, William Frawley, Spring Byington, Ted North, Helene Reynolds, and Phil Silvers.

Condition: good to very good. The poster has 4" of clean horizontal separation in the middle of the middle horizontal fold, with tiny paper loss at the top crossfold. It had faint stains and tiny tears scattered down the right border and someone put conservation tape on the back of the entire border. The poster also has some tape stains, tears, and small stains in the other borders, and those, too, have conservation tape on the back, and someone performed restoration to the front of those mended border defects (see our super-sized image).
