An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Christmas in Connecticut, the 1945 Peter Godfrey post-World War II mistaken identity food cooking newspaper journalism romantic holiday comedy ("From an Original Story by Aileen Hamilton"; about a female newspaper columnist who pretends to be a homemaker and who runs recipes provided by her friend, but then her publisher decides to have a returning war hero spend Christmas at her home, eating her delicious home cooked meals, when actually, she can't do any of that, and she puts on a massive deception to fool everybody!) starring Barbara Stanwyck, Dennis Morgan, Sydney Greenstreet, Reginald Gardiner, S.Z. Sakall, Robert Shayne, Frank Jenks, and Betty Alexander. Note that the IMDb says that this movie was released in England under the title of "Indiscretion", but we have seen a U.S. title card with that title. We wonder if Warner Bros. released it both ways (especially because it was a Christmas movie that oddly opened in August!). If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: fair to good. The poster had a circular area of paper loss at the top crossfold, extending into Morgan's eye and the edge of Stanwyck's eye, and half her eyebrow. It had similar paper loss at the bottom crossfold affecting the bottom of the "T". It had small paper loss at the middle crossfold, but it had larger paper loss in the left and right of the middle crossfold. It also had some small tears and tiny bits of paper loss on parts of the other folds, and pinholes around the edges. Overall, the poster was in poor condition prior to linenbacking. Given the poster's substantial defects, the restorer did a pretty nice job, but the restoration is still noticeable, so bear it in mind (and look at our super-sized image) before bidding on this poster.
