Auction History Result 4y081 4 DAYS' WONDER 1sh '36 Kenneth Howell, Martha Sleeper, new screen discovery Jeanne Dante! Date Sold 9/18/2011 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41") (Learn More) Four Days Wonder, the 1936 Sidney Saklow crime murder mystery melodrama ("From A.A. Milne's novel"; about a teenager who is fascinated by murder mysteries, and then accidentally gets mixed up in a real murder!) starring Jeanne Dante (billed as "The new screen discovery"), Kenneth Howell, Martha Sleeper, Alan Mowbray, Walter Catlett, Charles Williams, Spencer Charters, Margaret Irving, Murray Kinnell, and Rollo Lloyd. This movie was intended to make Jeanne Dante, then 13 years old, a new adolescent star, but sadly, that did not come to be. She had one more uncredited role that year, and then left the business, years later making a few uncredited appearances. Note that most people only know A.A. Milne as the author of the Winnie the Pooh stories, and most would be quite surprised to learn of this story he wrote, which was one of many plays and screenplays he wrote before he wrote his first successful Winnie the Pooh stories in 1925 (he wrote this play in 1921). NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: good to very good. There is some tattering and small paper loss at the crossfolds, along the left of the bottom horizontal fold and around the edges of the poster. There is a v-shaped tear in the blank border at middle right that has been repaired with brown paper tape from the back. The poster is otherwise in pretty nice condition (especially considering its age) and after a simple linenbacking by a top professional, the poster will look fantastic, and there will be little paint restoration anywhere on the poster!.
