Here Comes the Navy, the 1934 Lloyd Bacon Naval military sailor romantic love triangle comedy ("Join the world and see the Navy!"; "All the thrills and glory of the U.S. fleet... in action!"; nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award; about a brash young sailor who resists learning from an older experienced sailor, and there is a beautiful young woman they are both interested in; Cagney would appear in several movies with this exact same plot, but in different settings, and it was also used with many other actors) starring James Cagney, Pat O'Brien, Gloria Stuart, Frank McHugh, George Irving, Guinn 'Big Boy' Williams, Robert Barrat, "and the U.S. Fleet". Note that the sailors in the movie are stationed on the U.S.S. Arizona, which just seven years later would be sunk at Pearl Harbor.

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned two examples of this window card, and one of those two examples has now been reconsigned to us, so this is still only one of two examples we have ever auctioned!

Note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a heavy paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (except 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.

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster had pinholes, creases, tears, smudges, stains, and areas of paper loss around the edges, and a much lesser amount within the image area. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, because you can see slight signs of the restoration of the above defects, but from a reasonable viewing distance, they are not very distracting, and the poster does not have a "restored" look.
