McLeod fantasy adventure melodrama ("'Tis Brillig'!"; "The miracle picture of all time"; based on the classic novel by Lewis Carroll; Paramount came up with the idea of having many of their top stars appear as the famous characters from the book, often heavily disguised by the costumes!) starring Charlotte Henry (in the title role "as Alice"; she is best remembered for playing the lead in this film!), Richard Arlen (as The Cheshire Cat), Roscoe Ates (as the Fish), Gary Cooper (as the White Knight), Leon Errol (as Uncle Gilbert), Louise Fazenda (as the White Queen), W.C. Fields (as Humpty-Dumpty), Richard 'Skeets' Gallagher (as the Rabbit), Cary Grant (as the Mock Turtle), Raymond Hatton (as the Mouse), Edward Everett Horton (as The Mad Hatter), Roscoe Karns (as Tweedledee), Baby LeRoy (as the Joker), Mae Marsh (as the Sheep), Polly Moran (as the Dodo Bird), Jack Oakie (as Tweedledum), Edna May Oliver (as the Red Queen), May Robson (as the Queen of Hearts), Charlie Ruggles (as the March Hare), Alison Skipworth (as the Duchess), Ned Sparks (as the Caterpillar), Ford Sterling (as the White King), Sterling Holloway (as the Frog), and Alec B.

Important Added Info: Note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (except somewhat heavier). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards, and lobby cards. Condition: good. The poster was water stained and darkened throughout, with some tiny areas of surface paper loss scattered through the poster. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was well backed by a talented restorer, who touched up most of the lettering and the images of the stars, but did relatively little restoration in the background areas to avoid giving the poster a "heavily restored" look. You can clearly see that the poster has had a good amount of touch up in the lettering and some touch up in the images, and there is faint staining and unevenness in the background areas, but it is not very distracting. Obviously, one would prefer to find an example of this window card that had no defects or restoration, but I do not know if another example of this card exists (or if it does, if the owner would consider parting with it!). This card has had expert restoration and displays nicely. Learn More about condition grades
