An Original Vintage Theatrical Mini Window Card Movie Poster (measures 8" x 14") (Learn More) A Day at the Races, the classic 1937 Sam Wood horse racing sports gambling screwball comedy ("The year's big laugh, music and girl show!") starring the Marx Brothers (Groucho Marx, Chico Marx, and Harpo Marx), Allan Jones, Maureen O'Sullivan, Margaret Dumont, Esther Muir, Douglass Dumbrille, Sig Ruman, Leonard Ceeley, and Dorothy Dandridge (in an uncredited early role, in a sequence where a large number of young black African American men and women sing with Harpo). Note that this movie includes the classic comedy sequence where Groucho tries to buy a horse racing tip from Chico's Tootsie-Frootsie ice cream cart! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Al Hirschfeld Condition: good to very good. There are scuffs at the bottom of Groucho's chin. There are light water stains in the upper right edge of the card (just below the paper snipe). There are a few minor border defects and a crease in the bottom right corner. I would think most collectors would be happy to display this great card just as it is, as the above imperfections are not very distracting at all, and of course, a talented restorer could likely improve the card through chemical means and only a tiny bit of paint, after which the card would look wonderful!
