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

Hell's Kitchen, the 1939 E.A. Dupont (Ewald Andre Dupont) & Lewis Seiler New York City teenage delinquent reform school melodrama ("We're fightin' the whole world... And we're tryin' to fight clean!"; "Crowded with action!"; "They are fighting the battle a thousand forgotten killers fought... and lost! ...It's a fight to go straight... to overcome the evil every gutter kid must face! Can they do it? You'll find out... in the most exciting picture the 'Dead End' Kids have ever made!"; "From an original story by Crane Wilbur") starring The Dead End Kids (including Billy Halop, Bobby Jordan, Leo Gorcey, Huntz Hall, and Gabriel Dell), Margaret Lindsay, Ronald Reagan, Stanley Fields, and Grant Mitchell. Note that this movie was basically a remake of the 1933 Warner Bros. movie "The Mayor of Hell", starring James Cagney. Warner Bros. must have REALLY loved this plot, because they used it in 1938's "Crime School", with the Dead End Kids and Humphrey Bogart, and then they reused it in this movie, the very next year!

What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and some tiny tears and tiny bits of paper loss scattered on parts of the vertical fold, with a lesser amount of wear on the horizontal folds and just a few tiny pinholes in the borders. There was writing on the back of the poster that very slightly bled through to the front in the bottom of the "CHE" of "KITCHEN" in the title. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well!
