Seiter romantic family relationship legal lawyer murder melodrama ("Based on the novel by Arthur Somers Roche"; about a woman who is tried for the murder of her husband, and she is acquitted, but then her wealthy and powerful mother-in-law seeks custody of her child) starring Madeleine Carroll (in the title role as Hope Ames), George Brent, Arthur Treacher, Alan Baxter, Beulah Bondi, Scotty Beckett, Alan Mowbray, Richard Carle, and Esther Dale 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 ANY movie paper from this movie is incredibly rare. We have only previously auctioned two inserts, a window card, four lobby cards, a pressbook, and some stills from this movie (and NO other movie paper of any kind) until we received this three-sheet Note that this is one of an amazing find of seven similar three-sheets that were found in the home of a man who worked at a movie theater in the mid 1930s, and he took these posters home with him and they sat undisturbed in his house ever since! All of these three-sheets are incredibly rare. We are also auctioning four other three-sheets that also came from this amazing find, in four separate auctions, but those four were folded very differently, and they measure approximately 21" x 21" when folded, and three of the four of those are kraftbacked, but just like the seven that were folded the other way, they are also incredibly rare. This may be your only opportunity to obtain this poster (or any of the other three-sheets, which are being auctioned in separate auctions). Also note that this poster was folded oddly, and it now measures approximately 11" x 20", so it will need to be sent in a larger than normal flat package that measures approximately 13" x 22", so bear this in mind before bidding. Also note that this three-sheet was printed in 2 sections designed to overlap. Also note that the theater that used this poster glued the pieces together before putting them on display (this is typical of many actual theater-used posters in multiple pieces). Condition: good to very good. The theater that used this poster glued the pieces together before putting them on display (this is typical of many actual theater-used posters in multiple pieces). There are many creases along parts of the folds, with some scattered in the image. There are pinholes, creases, and small tears around the edges. Learn More about condition grades
