An Original Vintage Theatrical Paperbacked Half-Sheet Movie Poster (measures 22" x 28") (Learn More)

Zaza, the 1939 George Cukor France romantic love triangle melodrama ("From the play by Pierre Berton and Charles Simon"; about a sexy singer in a French music hall who falls in love with a married aristocrat; Colbert plays a part that five years before would surely have been played by Marlene Dietrich!) starring Claudette Colbert (in the title role as Zaza), Herbert Marshall, Bert Lahr, Helen Westley, Constance Collier, Genevieve Tobin, Walter Catlett, and Ann Todd (not the famous actress, but a child actress with the same name, who was the fourth cousin of the wife of Abraham Lincoln!)

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: very good. The poster had rough creases across both foldlines. There were pinholes, creases, tears, and some tiny areas of paper loss around the edges of the poster. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was well backed. The restorer chose to paint over most of the white blank borders (to "even them out"), but pretty much left alone the image area, so as to not give the poster a "heavily restored" look, and I think they did a great job, because from any reasonable viewing distance, the poster's above restored defects are not very noticeable or distracting.
