An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded French One-Panel "Grande" Movie Poster (1p; measures 47" x 63" [119 x 160 cm]) (Learn More)

Chansons de Paris (literally translates to "Songs of Paris"), the 1934 Jacques de Baroncelli French musical rags-to-riches best friends comedy (about a street singer who is discovered and becomes famous, and he rejects his old best friend, but when he realizes that his new "friends" are exploiting him, he abandons them and returns to his friend from the streets) starring Georges Thill (a real life opera singer with a magnificent voice!), Armand Bernard, Louisa de Mornand, Jacques Varennes, Simone Bourday, Yvonne Claude, Paulette Elambert, and Ginette Gaubert. It appears this movie was never released in the U.S. If anyone knows more about this movie, please e-mail us and we will post it here.
Artist: Vila
Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare pre-World War II French poster, which is a "country of origin" poster for this French movie, which we have never auctioned before! Virtually no French posters survive from before, during, or right after World War II. Apparently there were many paper shortages in France during World War II, resulting in the destruction of almost all pre-World War II posters!

Condition: good. The poster is fragile and has darkened on the folds and has pinholes around the edges. It has some pieces of white paper tape on the back of parts of some folds, where there was separation.
