Guilty Parents, the 1934 Jack Townley parents-are-the-cause-of-their-teenagers-troubles crime melodrama ("A bitter indictment"; "Honor and virtue in the pitfalls of jazz and gin!"; "A true to life story"; "Cold bare facts for the broadminded fathers and mothers of today!"; "Warning! Adults Only"; "None under High School age admitted"; "A moment of delirious freedom"; about a girl who makes poor choices, and ends up in a compromising situation with a sleazy man, and she kills him, and she is put on trial for his murder, and before the jury can return, she jumps out a window, never finding out they had declared her not guilty, because her mother had not properly educated her in sex education!) starring John St. Polis, Robert Frazer, Jean Lucy, Gertrude Astor, and Isabel La Mal

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that we have only auctioned two examples of this poster before! Note that this one-sheet measures 28" x 42" [71 x 107 cm]. Also note that this poster was tri-folded only (which means there is no vertical machine fold) but because it would be more expensive to send flat, it will be sent rolled in a tube.

Condition: good. The poster has creases and scuffs scattered in various areas (much more so along portions of the lower horizontal fold) and there are creases and tears along portions of the center horizontal fold (see our image). After proper restoration the very rare poster will display well, but bear in mind the poster's condition and the cost of restoration before bidding on it.
