An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Australian Daybill Movie Poster (db; measures 13 1/2" x 30" [34 x 76 cm]) (Learn More) The Perils of Pauline, the 1947 George Marshall biographical movie actress comedy ("The LIFE, LOVES and THRILLS of Pearl White, the great serial queen...who dared a thousand dangers to make the movies famous!"; "The wonder show of today about the first wonder-star of the screen!"; "The Whole Spectacular Inside Story of Hollywood's First Queen of the Screen!"; "Her Beauty... Her Love... Her Daring... Brought the Screen Its Greatest Thrills!"; about actress Pearl White, famous star of the most memorable silent serial, "The Perils of Pauline") starring Betty Hutton (as Pearl White), John Lund, Billy De Wolfe, William Demarest, Constance Collier, Frank Faylen, and William Farnum. Note that Pearl White is of course the most famous female silent serial star, but after many injuries from her roles, she decided that she wanted to quit serials, and she turned to "serious acting", but she became addicted to painkillers after a back injury. She retired in 1924 and passed away in 1938, when she was just 49. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Richardson Studio Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned one example of this Australian daybill. The buyer had the poster linenbacked and has now reconsigned it to us, so this is still the only example we have ever auctioned! Note that this is one of an amazing collection of 62 linenbacked Australian daybills that all have great art from Richardson Studio (or John Richardson, before he became "Richardson Studio"!), which many collectors feel have the best art and design of any Australian daybills, and are highly sought after by collectors. These were accumulated by a very dedicated collector over many years, and they are now being all offered at once (in 62 separate auctions), so this is a wonderful opportunity to obtain one or many of these daybills, many of which rarely are offered for sale or at auction.

The poster had a thin strip of paper loss across much of the top fold and a much lesser amount in the bottom fold. Overall, the poster was in fair to good condition prior to linenbacking. The restorer backed the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did not do restoration to the defects described above. Learn More about condition grades
