Auction History Result 2x031 AMERICAN MADNESS linen style B 1sh '32 Frank Capra, art of Walter Huston & young Pat O'Brien! Date Sold 12/2/2008 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Style B One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41") (Learn More) American Madness, the 1932 Frank Capra Depression-era run-on-the-bank financial crime melodrama ("The Great American Picture of Today!"; "Story and Dialogue by Robert Riskin") starring Walter Huston, Pat O'Brien, Sterling Holloway, Kay Johnson, Constance Cummings, and Gavin Gordon. There are those (myself included) who consider this a better Capra movie than "It's a Wonderful Life" (which reprises a significant part of the plot of this movie, involving a "run" on the bank sequence, although the one in this movie is far more realistically portrayed) NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: very good. The poster had small paper loss at the bottom two crossfolds and creases and tiny surface paper loss in the foldlines right next to the bottom crossfold. There was a tiny round stain in the girl's forehead with an even smaller one beneath it. There were some creases, pinholes, and tiny stains in the borders. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can see slight signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects (any restorer could easily perform slight additional touch up to those areas without re-backing the poster).
