Auction History Result 4j0299 FOOTLOOSE HEIRESS Other Company 3sh 1937 different art of Ann Sheridan & Reynolds, ultra rare! Date Sold 6/6/2023 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Three-Sheet Movie Poster (3sh; measures 41" x 81" [104 x 206 cm]) (Learn More) The Footloose Heiress, the 1937 William Clemens romantic love triangle rich-woman-poor-man comedy ("...A lively romantic adventure!"; "With a splendid cast!"; about the daughter of a rich man who has a gold digging boyfriend, and her father disapproves, and she meets a hobo who she instantly dislikes, but the hobo turns out to be a highly educated man who rescues her father's company, and the girl falls in love with him!) starring Craig Reynolds, Ann Sheridan, Anne Nagel, William Hopper, and Hugh O'Connell. Note that someone at Warner Bros. noticed the great success of It Happened One Night and My Man Godfrey, and combined the two plots into this movie, and used it as a vehicle for their new hot young star Ann Sheridan. Unfortunately, they did not cast one of their top male stars like James Cagney in the lead, but instead went with Craig Reynolds. Had they used a star like Cagney, this might have been a classic!

Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this "other company" three-sheet, and we have also never auctioned a 1937 Warner Bros. studio-issued three-sheet! This was printed by Associated Displays Corporation which was a company based in New York City. Before it was discovered by noted poster dealer/historian Walter Reuben, collectors did not know the name of this company (and thought it to be located in the Midwest), and it is often referred to as the "other company" (and we will continue to refer to it that way, since collectors know it that way). From 1936 to roughly 1941, this company printed its own one-sheets and lobby card sets (and a very few inserts, half-sheets, three-sheets, 40x60s and stills) for three major studio movies (Warner Brothers, Paramount and United Artists, but no other studios). The items almost always feature a tiny legal disclaimer and cast credits only. The posters and lobby cards are from the original release of the movie, and almost always have completely different artwork from the regular studio release. They did this by combining elements from different film scenes onto one poster or card. Sometimes, "other company" posters have images that are the equal of those from the regular studio release posters. Note that this three-sheet was printed in 3 sections designed to overlap. Condition: good. There are a few faint water stains scattered in small parts of the poster. There are many tiny staple holes around the edges. Learn More about condition grades
