If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that in the 1930s and 1940s, movie studios made silk burgees (also called silk banners) for most major releases. These were printed on a silk (or silk-like) material, sometimes with a gold fringe at the bottom, and usually with an opening at the top through which a wooden pole could be inserted, usually with a rope attached to both ends of the pole, so that the burgee could be hung from a nail at the theater. Few silk burgees are known to survive (we have only auctioned around a dozen of them in our many years of auctioning), and many collectors are not even aware of their existence! We have just been consigned a remarkable find of TWENTY THREE of these silk banners! That is double the amount we auctioned in all our previous 25 years of auctioning. Each of these 23 silk banners are currently at auction individually. This is a very rare opportunity to purchase one or many of this extremely rare size of original 1930s and 1940s movie posters! Condition: fair to good. Unfortunately, the banner has pretty light water staining scattered throughout, including in the stars' faces. It is possible that a restorer can remove the staining, but don't know how difficult or expensive that would be, so bear this considerable defect in mind before placing a bid on this banner.
