Cline & George Marshall family relationship romantic circus screwball comedy ("Original Story by Charles Bogle", which was one of Fields' many pseudonyms!) starring W.C. Fields, Edgar Bergen, Charlie McCarthy, Mortimer Snerd (billed as "Mortimer"), Constance Moore, Mary Forbes, Thurston Hall, Princess Baba (as herself), John Arledge, Charles Coleman, Edward Brophy, Arthur Hohl, Blacaman, and Eddie 'Rochester' Anderson. Note that Charlie McCarthy was Edgar Bergen's ventriloquist dummy, but in the movie he is treated as though he is a human boy, and there is almost no reference to Bergen talking "for" McCarthy!

Important Added Info: Note that Universal re-released this classic comedy in 1947, just eight years after it was first released. We had never auctioned even one item from this re-release until we were consigned this one-sheet! Likely this is because just two years later, the movie was re-released again by Realart, along with many other Universal movies, and likely at that time, all the 1947 re-release posters were used up or destroyed.
