Auction History Result 7k430 ADORABLE 1/2sh '33 beautiful Princess Janet Gaynor pretends to be poor, William Dieterle! Date Sold 5/21/2015 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More) Adorable, the 1933 William Dieterle (billed as "Wilhelm Dieterle") romantic comedy ("Happy-Romantic-Lilting-Superb!"; "A Joyous Romance in Rhythm"; "Story by Paul Frank and Billie Wilder [Billy Wilder]"; "Music by Werner Richard Heymann"; the age old story of a beautiful princess who pretends to be a poor commoner, and she falls in love with a worker, but the Prime Minister of her country wants her to marry a prince she has never met) starring Janet Gaynor, Henri Garat (billed as "Henry Garat"), Sterling Holloway, C. Aubrey Smith, and Herbert Mundin. Note that this movie was made two years after director William Dieterle emigrated from Germany to the United States, and he is billed under his birth name of Wilhelm Dieterle. Also, this is one of the earliest U.S. movies for legendary director/writer Billy Wilder after HE emigrated from Germany, and he is billed under the name of "Billie" Wilder (especially odd, because his birth name was Samuel Wilder!). 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 never been folded! Some pre-1970 half-sheet posters were folded twice horizontally at the poster exchange, while some were not. It can be difficult to find an unfolded example of many pre-1970 half-sheet posters (note that most post-1970 half-sheets were NOT folded, so they are pretty much only found unfolded, and therefore this does not apply to those half-sheets). Condition: poor to fair. The poster was never folded. It has many stains scattered throughout. Obviously, it can be restored, but bear this expense in mind before placing a bid on this poster.
