An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (measures 27" x 41") (Learn More) Stardust, the 1938 Roy Mack Vitaphone singing-and-dancing musical comedy short subject (one of the Vitaphone "Broadway Brevities" series) starring Benny Davis, Bobbie Joyce & Jackie Strong, Dorn Bros & Mary, Frankie Lanno, The Three Freshmen, Jolly Gillette, Rollo & Vernon Pickert, Arline & George Colston, and Dwight Weist. Note that there were many movies with this name, but the others were feature length. If anyone knows more about this short subject, please e-mail us and we will post it here. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: No condition recorded. This poster was linenbacked, and it had fairly significant defects which were somewhat repaired during the linenbacking process (we describe both the defects as well as the quality of the restoration below). You should also look at our "super-sized" image of the actual poster (we are the only major auction company we know of that gives accurate detailed pre-restoration information about linenbacked posters to our bidders, but we wish everyone did!). the poster had a series of small tears and tiny areas of paper loss down the vertical foldline; the horizontal foldlines had few defects. The borders of the poster were somewhat tattered. The person who did the restoration put new blank white paper over all the borders to even out the appearance (but the small writing at the bottom of the poster was not covered over). This is a common technique used by several top restorers. It is done so well that the majority of collectors are not even aware it has been done, and many do not feel it to be a significant detraction (since it is only blank white area). The defects in the vertical foldline were pretty nicely corrected during linenbacking. The poster looks nice, although you can see some signs of the restoration.
