An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Movie Window Card (WC; measures 14" x 19 1/2" [36 x 50 cm]) (Learn More)

By the Light of the Silvery Moon, the 1953 David Butler musical ("They're Wooin' and Doin' The Things Boys and Girls Like To Do..."; "Warner Bros.' wonderfully warm-hearted croonin' and spoonin' musical delight!"; "Written by Robert O'Brien and Irving Elinson"; "Those grand days! Those grand ways! They're singin', dancin', wooin' and doin' all the things boys and girls love to do!"; "How they croon... How they spoon...") starring Doris Day, Gordon MacRae, Billy Gray, Leon Ames, and Rosemary DeCamp. Note that at this time Warner Brothers was looking for movies to make with Doris Day and so they chose to re-make one of their successful "Penrod" movies of the 1930s, but they switched the emphasis from the Penrod character to his tomboy older sister (played by Day)!

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.

Important Added Info: Note that this poster has been trimmed and it now measures 14" x 19 1/2" [36 x 50 cm]. Also note that this window card was never folded. Often window cards would be folded across the middle, because that would make them 11" x 14", and they could then be sent with standard folded posters. Most collectors put an added value on a window card that has never been folded.

Condition: good to very good.
