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

While New York Sleeps, the 1938 H. Bruce Humberstone Roving Reporters newspaper journalism crime thriller sequel (about newspaper reporters trying to solve murders while romancing pretty women) starring Michael Whalen, Jean Rogers, Chick Chandler, Robert Kellard, Joan Woodbury, Harold Huber, and Marc Lawrence. Note that there were three Roving Reporters films; Time Out for Murder, While New York Sleeps, and Inside Story. Evidently they did not do well, so no further movies in the series were made. 20th Century-Fox at this time specialized in these types of series of B-movies (including Mr. Moto, Charlie Chan, etc.).
