An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded INCOMPLETE Style D One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 34 1/2" [69 x 88 cm]) (Learn More) Swiss Miss, the 1938 John G. Blystone romantic Switzerland screwball comedy ("In a big, lavish, musical super feature"; "Original story by Jean Negulesco and Charles Rogers"; produced by Hal Roach; about two mouse trap salesmen who go broke in Switzerland, and they get jobs in a hotel, and get involved with a chambermaid who is actually a famous opera singer spying on her husband) starring Stan Laurel, Oliver Hardy (Laurel and Hardy), Della Lind, Walter Woolf King, Eric Blore, Grete Natzler, Adia Kuznetzoff, and Charles Gemora (as the man in the gorilla suit, in a memorable sequence where Laurel and Hardy are trying to move a piano over a rope bridge). Note that Charles Gemora played gorillas in many movies, likely because he owned a gorilla suit, and could do a somewhat convincing job portraying a gorilla. Just a few years later, Ray 'Crash' Corrigan would also start playing gorillas, and no doubt they competed for roles in every movie requiring a gorilla! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Al Hirschfeld Important Added Info: Note that this poster has been trimmed IN HALF, IS INCOMPLETE and it now measures only 27" x 34 1/2" (see below) Condition: poor. A theater needed a stock poster for a showing of "Flying Deuces" so someone cut the title and credits off of this poster (cutting the poster essentially in half under the artwork) and then they attached a large snipe to that area (see our image). The remaining upper half has some ink transfer, edge defects and other defects that can be clearly seen in our super-sized image. Please do not bid on this poster unless you have carefully reviewed the above and our super-sized image AND you can accept that this is only the upper half of this poster and that everything under the art is not from the original poster (that area is theater-made).
