Some of her movies include: A Farewell to Arms, Herbie Rides Again, and Arrowsmith. She won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress in Airport in 1970, which was 39 years after she won her Best Actress Oscar in 1931 for The Sin of Madelon Claudet. She was married to legendary screenwriter Charles MacArthur, and the mother of actor James MacArthur (and the mother of actress Mary MacArthur, who passed away at just 19, from polio). She passed away in 1993 at the age of 92. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: MGM created two different sets of personality posters in the 1930s to promote their stars. The earlier set was made in 1932, and this poster comes from that set. These posters are extremely rare as few theaters ordered them, and fewer still saved them! Note that these posters were printed on a high quality paper stock, but it is one that does not always age very well, and can become fragile (usually resulting in chips around the edges of the poster). Because of their fragile nature and their age, we always send these posters in large flat packages, and never roll them into tubes! Condition: good. There is paper loss in three of the corners and pinholes in all four corners. There are two areas of paper loss in the lower right border and many creases, smudges, and scuffs around the edges of the poster. There are a few scattered tiny indentations in Hayes' face and a few scuffs throughout the image. Learn More about condition grades
