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!).

Important Added Info: Note that this poster comes from a collection that was consigned to us of window cards, inserts, and half-sheets, ALL of which are in MUCH lesser condition (as is immediately evident from looking at the images of these posters). But many of these posters are from early 1930s titles where it is next-to-impossible to find a better condition example of these posters! Obviously, the cost of restoration of these posters will vary greatly depending on the extent of the defects, so please carefully study our super-sized image of each item BEFORE you place a bid. Also, know that normally we allow returns of any item, but because all of these items are in MUCH lesser condition, we will NOT accept returns of this item, so bear that in mind as well before placing a bid. Condition: poor. The poster has major staining and nail holes scattered throughout. The poster is quite fragile. Learn More about condition grades
