Important Added Info: Note that after Ginger Rogers won an Academy Award for "Kitty Foyle" and James Stewart won for "The Philadelphia Story", RKO re-released this 1938 movie in 1941, with an ad campaign that was headlined "The Two Academy Award Winners Together"! Also 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 to very good. The poster was never machine folded, but it was roughly lightly folded horizontally, and there were creases and scuffs across the middle of the poster. There were a few scuffs in the rest of the image. There was a 4" diagonal tear in the lower right border that extended into the brown background to the right of the title and there were some other creases and tears in the borders. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can see slight signs of the restoration of the above defects.
