Gasnier marijuana marihuana pot weed drug thriller ("Marijuana drugs, Weed from the Devil's garden!"; "One moment of bliss, a lifetime of regret!"; "Hunting a thrill, they inhaled a drag of concentrated sin!"; "Wake up America! Here's a roadside weed that's fast becoming a national high-way!"; "Women cry for it, men die for it!"; "What actually happens!"; "Never before such exciting frankness"; "A Daring Theme!"; "Dope-created ecstasy avalanching into frightful perversions"; "Makes Beasts of Men & Women"; "Adults only") starring Dave O'Brien, Dorothy Short, Carlton Young, Kenneth Craig, and Lillian Miles. Note that drug and mature movies like these were extremely popular in "late night" showings at small town theaters throughout the 1940s, and they were often re-issued and re-named multiple times. In the case of this movie, it was re-issued under titles such as "The Burning Question" and "Tell Your Children", each time with lurid images and taglines! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this incomplete three-sheet! It is possible it is some sort of a horizontal "teaser" one-sheet, but we think it is more than likely that it is one-third of a three-sheet. This would be from when this movie was shown around the U.S. in "roadshow" releases, often in late night or midnight shows. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Condition: fair. We are grading this as "fair" in the assumption it is one-third of a three-sheet. If it is a special poster, then it would grade as "good to very good".
