An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Herald (measures 4" x 8 3/4" [10 x 22 cm]; 2 pages) (Learn More)

Footlight Parade, the classic 1933 Lloyd Bacon New York City Broadway stage romantic musical ("Another of Warner Bros.' Glittering Parade of Musical Sensations!"; "Surpassing even '42nd Street' and 'Gold Diggers of 1933'"; "Can you even think of missing it?"; "250 of the world's most gorgeous girls and hundreds more of your screen favorites."; "Dance numbers by Busby Berkeley") starring James Cagney (billed on some items as "Jimmy Cagney"), Joan Blondell, Ruby Keeler, Dick Powell, Frank McHugh, Ruth Donnelly, Guy Kibbee, Hugh Herbert, Nancy Lyons, Gordon Westcott, Claire Dodd, Donna Mae Roberts, Renee Whitney, and Bobbie La Salle. Note that this movie had some of the most risque advertising of any movie ever, with many images of girls wearing the skimpiest of costumes (and they were advertised as "one of the 300 reasons why you must see Footlight Parade")!
NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.
Important Added Info: Note that Warner Bros. went all out in creating all sorts of wonderful sexy advertising for this movie, including 12 different heavy stock heralds that measured 4" x 8 3/4". They inserted an uncut sheet of four of the heralds into the pressbooks, with a note to the exhibitor on the bottom of the back of the sheet, BUT THIS IS AN ACTUAL HERALD PRINTED FOR THEATER USE, ON THE SAME HEAVY STOCK!

Condition: good to very good. The herald was partially folded across the middle, resulting in a faint crease to the left of Blondell's head. There is some very faint transparent staining in a line from the left of Powell's hair into the background on both sides, but it is barely noticeable. There is small surface paper loss on the back of the top of the herald, and someone wrote his name in the blank area beneath that (see our images). Certainly, the front of this herald could be framed and make a wonderful display in anyone's home!
