An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Movie Window Card (WC; measures 14" x 22" [36 x 56 cm]) (Learn More) Smuggled Cargo, the 1939 John H. Auer & Michael Jacoby orange growers crime thriller ("Lynching! The blackest of all crimes... The frenzied, bestial defense of cowards against issues they do not dare face"; about a group of orange growers who need oil to keep the oranges warm during a cold spell, and they are blackmailed by the man who can get the oil into selling him the oranges at a really low price, and there is much murder and intrigue before things are resolved) starring Barry MacKay, Rochelle Hudson, George Barbier, Ralph Morgan, Cliff Edwards (billed as "Cliff 'Ukulele Ike' Edwards"), and John Wray. Note that this was a standard crime programmer of the time period, but Republic Pictures tried to make it far more interesting by calling it "Smuggled Cargo", even though that was not really what the movie was about, and more deceptively, they played up the potential lynching (which is a tiny part near the end of the movie) on the movie's advertising!

Often window cards would be folded across the middle, because that would make them 11" x 14", and they could then be sent with standard folded posters. Most collectors put an added value on a window card that has never been folded. Condition: good to very good. Learn More about condition grades
