An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Style D One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41") (Learn More)

Whistling in Brooklyn, the 1943 S. Sylvan Simon New York City radio detective mistaken identity mystery crime slapstick comedy sequel ("It's Red-Roarious! Sky-High Skelton Fun!"; one of three movies where Red Skelton played the same radio detective, all with similar plots) starring Red Skelton, Ann Rutherford, Jean Rogers, "Rags" Ragland (former boxer and burlesque comedian who went to Hollywood in 1942 at the age of 37, and who appeared in a couple of dozen MGM movies until his death four years later), Ray Collins, Henry O'Neill, William Frawley, Sam Levine and The Brooklyn Dodgers baseball team! Note that a significant subplot of the movie involves Red Skelton, who is on the run from the law because they think he is a crazed serial killer, and who disguises himself as a member of a baseball team playing the Brooklyn Dodgers, which gives the filmmakers an excuse to show the real Brooklyn Dodgers, including manager Leo Durocher, and of course, the Dodgers were prominently billed on the posters!

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.

Condition: good to very good. The poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and separation and a few small tears on parts of some foldlines. There were some pinholes, creases, and tears in the borders. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects.
