Okay, choip!") starring The Bowery Boys (including Leo Gorcey and Huntz Hall), Bernard Gorcey (as Louie Dambrowski), Barton MacLane, Anthony Caruso, and Benny Bartlett. Note that Bernard Gorcey was star Leo Gorcey's father, and he played Louie, the owner of the Sweet Shop, where the boys frequently hung out, and Louie was often involved in slapstick gags, and many times Leo Gorcey would be tormenting or slapping his own father! 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 we were consigned a collection of posters and lobby cards from movies related to the Dead End Kids and the many sequel groups they appeared in, like the Bowery Boys. These were collected by one person in the 1970s, and it would take a lifetime to reassemble this collection, but all of these 160 items (which include many lobby card sets in single auctions) will have new owners when these auctions end! Condition: good to very good. The upper and lower edges of the poster were folded back at one time and there are several pinholes along two portions of those folds. There are a few other pinholes around the edges. It is otherwise in generally nice condition. Learn More about condition grades
