Wellman Detroit Michigan factory-worker romantic melodrama (based on the novel 'FOB Detroit' by Wessel Smitter; a slice-of-life movie about the life of a clam digger and his wife and baby; fearing the movie would not appeal enough to moviegoers, Paramount altered the source novel by adding a long fight scene between McCrea and a fellow worker!) starring Joel McCrea, Ellen Drew, Eddie Bracken, Albert Dekker, Billy Gilbert, and George Chandler 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 this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (except somewhat heavier). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards, and lobby cards. Condition: very good. The poster was never folded. It had faint smudges in the white and yellow background areas and some creases, scuffs, small tears, and tiny paper loss in the blank borders. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well! Learn More about condition grades
