Important Added Info: Note that we have previously auctioned posters from this movie that have "Foy Productions" on them, but have a "silkscreen-like" look to them. We identified them as being from 1934, but knew that there was a possibility that they could be from the movie being shown in small towns throughout the U.S., as so many similar movies were shown in the 1930s and 1940s, in "roadshow" releases. We also auctioned different silkscreen one-sheets that had dates on the top, and those correlate to 1938, so we believe the movie was playing in 1938 as well. But now, we have been consigned this poster, which surely is from the first release in 1934, because it looks much more like a traditional movie poster. But that doesn't say for certain that the other undated posters are not from 1934, just that it seems more likely they are from the next few years. We have never auctioned this poster before. If anyone knows more about any of this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Condition: good.
