Artist: Jacques Kapralik Important Added Info: Note that from the 1920s on, studios would create elaborate trade ads, often in full color, and often using the finest artists of the day. They would run these ads in their studio yearbooks (and sometimes those books are separated and the ads are sold individually), but they would also print those trade ads separately and mail them individually to theater owners, trying to get them to book that specific movie. The trade ad offered here was NOT removed from a yearbook or magazine, but was printed individually. It comes to us from the daughter of an MGM studio executive, who took home samples of these great ads (which explains why they are in such great condition, because they were never mailed to a theater). Condition: very good. There is a diagonal crease in the upper left edge of the ad. The ad is otherwise in pretty nice condition. Learn More about condition grades
