An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Herald (measures 4 1/2" x 6" [11 x 15 cm]; 4 pages) (Learn More) Little Caesar, the classic 1930 Mervyn LeRoy gangster mob organized crime thriller ("The power-mad monarch of the murder mobs!"; based on the novel by W.R. Burnett, and loosely based on the rise and fall of Al Capone; at the end of the movie, Edward G. Robinson says that classic line "Mother of mercy, is this the end of Rico?") starring Edward G. Robinson (in the title role as Caesar Enrico 'Rico' Bandello), Douglas Fairbanks Jr., Glenda Farrell, William Collier Jr., Sidney Blackmer, Ralph Ince, Stanley Fields, and George E. Stone. Note that this was one of the very first of the great "gangster" movies of the 1930s, and it predated Public Enemy and Scarface! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that first release movie paper of any kind from this classic gangster movie is beyond rare and incredibly expensive. We have only previously auctioned two examples of this herald (we auctioned one of those two examples twice)! In addition, Edward G. Robinson is not pictured on much of the advertising. However, this herald has wonderful cover art along with an image of Robinson on the interior (but clearly First National was promoting Douglas Fairbanks Jr. far more than Robinson, even though Robinson was billed over him and was clearly the star of the movie). Condition: good to very good. The herald was folded down the center and then folded again a tiny bit away from that first fold, so there are two folds down the center, with very slight darkening on one of the folds. There are four small tears in the right of the cover (see our image). Learn More about condition grades
