Date Sold 12/13/2016 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original 1938 (from the first release of this movie in Hungary) Vintage Theatrical Folded Hungarian Movie Poster (measures 12 1/2" x 37 1/4" [32 x 95 cm]) (Learn More) Charlie Chan at Monte Carlo, the 1937 Eugene Forde Monaco Asian detective mystery crime gambling casino thriller ("Based on the character 'Charlie Chan' created by Earl Derr Biggers"; "Original Story by Robert Ellis and Helen Logan") starring Warner Oland (in the title role as Charlie Chan), Keye Luke (as Lee Chan), Virginia Field, Sidney Blackmer, Harold Huber, Kay Linaker, and Robert Kent. Note that the very first Charlie Chan movie was "House Without a Key" in 1925, with George Kuwa as Chan. In 1927, "The Chinese Parrot" (directed by Paul Leni) starred Sojin Kamiyama as Chan. In 1929 came the third movie, "Behind That Curtain", starring E.L. Park as Charlie Chan. 1931 brought "Charlie Chan Carries On", starring Warner Oland in the first of many movies with him as the Asian detective, and he was later replaced by Sidney Toler and then Roland Winters (there would ultimately be 47 Charlie Chan movies!). Of course, Charlie Chan is one of the most memorable literary creations ever, from author Earl Derr Biggers, but because politically correct-minded people have viewed the character as outdated, the movies are rarely shown, which is a shame! 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 is a very rare first release Hungarian insert poster that is from 1938, when this movie was first released in Hungary (the tagline at the top translates to "The New Adventures of the Yellow Detective"!). We have never seen another example of this poster, and we likely never will! Also note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: good. There is a stain in the background above Oland's head and in the "r" of "Charlie" in the title. There are tears, stains, and tiny paper loss around the edges, and some minor wear on the borders (see our image). Learn More about condition grades
