The Old Homestead, the 1942 Frank McDonald romantic military war musical melodrama ("This picture has no connection with the play ['The Old Homestead.']") starring Weaver Brothers & Elviry (Leon Weaver, Frank Weaver, and June "Elviry" Weaver), Dick Purcell, Jed Prouty, Anne Jeffreys, Maris Wrixon, and Robert Conway

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.

Important Added Info: Note that this 30x40 is a silkscreen printed poster with an actual black & white photo which has neatly been "tipped in" (glued to the upper right corner of the poster). This is how almost all 30x40s were made at this time! Paper banners were also commonly made in this way at that time, and it makes for a striking poster, and few people would realize that it is not printed on a single piece, unless they examine the poster closely. Note that the silkscreen portions of this poster usually pick up scuff marks far more easily than other posters of this period (this was caused by the method of silkscreen printing, and is very common on these posters, and is not considered a major defect, unless it is very noticeable or distracting).

Condition: fair. There is tattering and large areas of paper loss around the edges of the poster. There is scuffing and discoloration throughout the poster. There is a large amount of writing on the back of the poster that does not appear to have any effect on the front.
