A 1942 Re-Release Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Gambling Lady, the 1934 Archie Mayo romantic gambling melodrama ("She played a man's game with the heart of a woman!"; a preposterous plot of a crooked gambling casino owner's daughter, who takes over, and runs it honestly, attracting lots of rich people, but earning the animosity of the mob, and the love of a rich young man, but can he forgive her past?) starring Barbara Stanwyck, Joel McCrea, Pat O'Brien, Claire Dodd, C. Aubrey Smith, Philip Reed, and Robert Barrat 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 first release posters from this title are INCREDIBLY rare! In all my years of full-time movie poster selling, I have never sold even one original lobby card from this movie, and in my 40+ years of collecting movie posters, I don't believe I have ever seen a single poster from this movie before other than an original insert, which I sold in 2007! One would prefer to have an original release poster, but given their extreme scarcity, one should consider "settling" for this re-release one-sheet (and even items from this 1942 re-release are also pretty scarce!). What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and some tiny bits of surface paper loss on parts of some foldlines. It had pinholes around the edges. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well, but the restorer did not entirely touch up the tiny bits of surface paper loss on parts of the foldlines (any restorer could perform additional touch up to those areas without re-backing the poster, if the new owner desired).
