Selznick) starring W.C.

Note that MGM took a great chance in casting W.C. Fields in the role of Micawber. No doubt everyone expected Fields to greatly ham up the role, and turn this serious subject into slapstick, but instead, he gave a wonderful performance, and added greatly to the movie!

Artist: Aberg Important Added Info: This Swedish poster measures 27 1/2" x 40" and that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: very good. There are rough creases across the horizontal foldlines and pinholes in the corners, and some creases in the bottom of the left blank border and in the top of the right border. These minor defects are not very distracting, but simple linenbacking would cause them to vanish, and this poster would look fantastic! Learn More about condition grades
