An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Insert Movie Poster (measures 14" x 36" [36 x 91 cm]) (Learn More) Louisa May Alcott's Little Women, the classic 1933 George Cukor (nominated for the Best Director Academy Award for this film) coming-of-age melodrama ("Dear to the heart of every woman of every age... America's favorite love story..."; "In a glowing drama of yesterday... fresh with the sweetness of eternal spring"; "Forgotten corners of the human heart thrill to the radiance of Jo and Beth and Meg and Amy.... in Little Women"; "A new sensation of sheer loveliness glorifies the screen!"; nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award; from the equally classic novel of the same name by Louisa May Alcott) starring Katharine Hepburn ("In today's best-loved romance"; as Jo), Joan Bennett (as Amy), Paul Lukas (as Professor Bhaer), Frances Dee (as Meg), Jean Parker (as Beth), Edna May Oliver (as Aunt March), Douglass Montgomery, Henry Stephenson, Spring Byington (as Marmee), and John Lodge (billed as "John Davis Lodge"). There had been many adaptations of this classic novel, but almost everybody considers this to be the definitive version, and Katharine Hepburn to the be definitive Jo March! 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 while we have auctioned several examples of the half-sheets from this movie, we have only previously auctioned one insert, and that insert has now been reconsigned to us, so this is still the only insert we have ever auctioned from this movie! Also note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Finally, note that because this insert was printed on a slightly heavier paper, it makes far more sense for it to be sent in a large flat package than rolled in a tube, because we are afraid that rolling it could cause damage to it, and we would hate for that to happen! We will only send it rolled in a tube if the buyer insists, and accepts full responsibility in case there is any damage to it. Condition: good. We think that the reds in the poster have faded somewhat, but we cannot find another example of the poster to compare it to. The poster had some separation on parts of the folds. It had an 8" vertical crease near the top center, with paper loss in the bottom left corner and some pinholes and tears around the edges, with a few tiny areas of paper loss. There was a 2" horizontal tear in the top left of Hepburn's hair. Someone put tape on the back of all three folds and on the back of the other defects, and performed slight restoration to the front of the poster. This ultra rare poster could still be displayed and enjoyed as it is, or certainly, one might choose to have restoration performed. Please bear in mind its condition before bidding on it.
