Date Sold 8/28/2008 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Paperbacked Window Card Movie Poster (WC; measures 14" x 22") (Learn More) The Passionate Adventure, the 1924 Graham Cutts English silent romantic love triangle melodrama (about an English aristocrat who has a cold wife, and he has an affair with a hot-blooded French woman, and that makes his wife realize that she needs to drastically change to avoid divorce!) starring Alice Joyce, Marjorie Daw, Clive Brook, Victor McLaglen and Lillian Hall-Davis. Note that the screenplay for this movie was co-written by Alfred Hitchcock (this was his fourth screenwriting job!). 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 this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (except somewhat heavier). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards, and lobby cards. Condition: good to very good. The poster had pinholes, creases, tears, and some areas of paper loss around the edges of the poster and some creases, smudges, scuffs, and a few pinholes scattered throughout the image. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was well backed by a talented restorer, who did not touch up the smudges and scuffs scattered through the poster (and I agree with that decision, because to do so would have required lots of paint, which would have given the poster a "heavily restored" look, and I don't feel the smudges and scuffs are all that distracting, and they help establish that this is a genuine 84 year-old original poster!). Obviously, one would prefer to find an example of this window card that had no defects or restoration, but I do not know if another example of this card exists (or if it does, if the owner would consider parting with it!). This card has had expert restoration and displays nicely. Learn More about condition grades
