An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Movie Window Card (WC; measures 14" x 20" [36 x 51 cm]) (Learn More) Womanhandled, the 1925 Gregory La Cava silent romantic screwball comedy ("[The Answer to 'Manhandled']"; "From the Saturday Evening Post story by Arthur Stringer"; a wacky story of a society playboy who meets a girl and falls in love, but she sees him as "soft", and she wants a real man like there are in the West, so he heads to a ranch, but finds that all the cowboys there have gone to Hollywood, and the only people left at the ranch are dudes like himself; so he hires some locals to pose as cowboys, but his girlfriend isn't fooled, but when he rescues her from a cattle stampede, she realizes he is a "real man"!) starring Richard Dix, Esther Ralston, Edmund Breese, Cora Williams, Olive Tell, and Margaret Morris. Note that the term "womanhandled" in the title refers to a man who was raised by women, and is not "manly". It seems to have completely vanished from modern vocabulary! Also note that the movie is a loose parody of a Gloria Swanson movie made the year before called "Manhandled", and the advertising for this movie included the tagline "The Answer to 'MANHANDLED'". 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 ANY movie paper from this movie is incredibly rare. We have only previously auctioned some stills and a glass slide from this movie (and NO other movie paper of any kind) until we received this window card! Also note that this poster has been trimmed and it now measures 14" x 20" [36 x 51 cm]. Condition: good to very good. 2" of the blank top was neatly trimmed off. There is darkening down the left 2" and faint staining in the right of the bottom border, but otherwise, the card is in really nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
