Tales of Manhattan, the 1942 Julien Duvivier New York City all-star compilation musical comedy ("'It's as thrilling as New York's skyline!' says Walter Winchell... 'with a story to match the brilliance of its stars!' An experience you'll Never forget!"; "A story as thrilling as its stars!") starring Charles Boyer, Rita Hayworth, Ginger Rogers, Henry Fonda, Charles Laughton, Edward G. Robinson, Paul Robeson (in his final film), Ethel Waters, Eddie 'Rochester' Anderson, "plus 46 featured players" including Thomas Mitchell, Eugene Pallette, Cesar Romero, Gail Patrick, Roland Young, Elsa Lanchester, George Sanders, George Reed, James Gleason, and the Hall Johnson Choir. Note that W.C. Fields starred in a chapter from this compilation film, but it was cut before the movie was released. As far as we know, Fields is not credited or shown on any movie paper for this film. The cut chapter was restored in a 1996 video re-release

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.

Condition: good. entire poster has faded somewhat; a very few dot stains in the faces; smudges and scuffs throughout the poster (more so in the credits and border areas). While this poster has significant defects, it is extremely rare, and surely a talented restorer could make it look wonderful!. Note that this poster has never been folded! Most half-sheet posters were folded twice (once horizontally and once vertically) right off of the printing press. It is very difficult to find an unfolded copy of most half-sheets, especially from before 1970!

minor creases throughout the poster; small tears around the edges in the blank borders
