An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More)

Song of the Open Road, the 1944 S. Sylvan Simon United Artists all-star musical comedy ("She stole my Radio Show... She stole My Heart... But She's still Tops with me in the Season's Top Musical Hit...!"; other studios had been making all-star musical comedies to raise morale during World War II, and United Artists wanted to do its part, but in order to have a credible lineup, they had to "cheap" a little and use some stars from other studios, and also use some not quite "first rank" stars like Regis Toomey; sorry, Regis!) starring Edgar Bergen & Charlie McCarthy, Bonita Granville, W.C. Fields, Peggy O'Neill, Jackie Moran, Bill Christy, Reginald Denny, Regis Toomey, Rose Hobart, Pat Starling, Sammy Kaye and His Orchestra, and Jane Powell (billed as "Introducing Jane Powell"; she was only 14 years-old at the time; she had been singing coloratura soprano on the radio, and was given a chance to be in this movie; I bet no one would have guessed she would go on to be a major musical star of the 1950s!)

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

Condition: good to very good. There is paper loss in the lower right blank corner and there is some tattering and tiny paper loss along the foldlines (mostly at the crossfolds with some repaired with tape from the back). The poster is otherwise in pretty nice condition.
