NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this is one of a wonderful collection of 29 photos (most measure 3.5x5.25, but some measure slightly smaller) that were taken by a man who worked at a large movie theater in the late 1930s and early 1940s. He created wonderful theater fronts and homemade posters (some that were displayed outside the theater and some inside the theater), and after he finished making his displays, he would take a picture of each and then he put them in a scrapbook. It is very rare to find photos of original theater fronts and local theater displays from this time period, and this is a rare opportunity to acquire 29 different ones (each in a separate auction). Condition: very good. The photo was stapled to an album page, and there are staple holes in the corners (see our images). Learn More about condition grades
