Important Added Info: Note that this trade ad was distributed in a weekly issue of Variety magazine. It was bound into the magazine, so there is slight wear on the spine from when it was removed from the magazine. From the 1920s on, studios would create elaborate trade ads, often in full color, and often using the finest artists of the day. They would run these ads in their studio yearbooks and exhibitor magazines, and they would also print those trade ads separately and mail them individually to theater owners, trying to get them to book that specific movie. Sometimes those books and magazines are separated and the ads, which now greatly resemble the individually printed trade ads, are sold individually. The trade ad offered here was printed individually. It can be framed and displayed (but many trade ads have different images on each side, so one must choose which side to display if it is framed!). Condition: good. There are many creases and scuffs. Learn More about condition grades
