An Original Vintage Theatrical Insert Movie Poster (measures 14" x 36" [36 x 91 cm]) (Learn More) Great Guns, the 1941 Monty Banks military screwball comedy ("They're the target in target practice! They're the revel in reveille!..... and they're the pain in the Sergeant's neck!") starring Stan Laurel, Oliver Hardy (Laurel and Hardy), Sheila Ryan, Dick Nelson, Edmund MacDonald, Paul Harvey, Russell Hicks, Charles Arnt, and Alan Ladd (in an uncredited role). Note that this movie was released in October 1941, when the U.S. was on the verge of entering World War II (and since it was expected by many, it made sense for studios to make war movies at this time). NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this insert! Condition: good to very good. The poster had separation along the folds, and someone put wide paper tape on the back of each. It had pinholes in the corners, with tape on the back of the top right corner. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to restoration. A talented restorer gel backed the poster (meaning they backed the poster onto a gel material) and they then performed restoration to the above defects, and then removed the gel backing, so that the poster still exactly looks and feels like an original poster (and it is!), with no backing at all. The poster was well backed, but the restorer painted over most of the solid white areas, to "even them out". Learn More about condition grades
