An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Three-Sheet Movie Poster (3sh; measures 41" x 81" [104 x 206 cm]) (Learn More) Sweet Surrender, the 1935 Monte Brice New York City Paris France cruise ship mistaken identity romantic musical ("Here it is!"; "The Filmusical romance with stars of stage, screen & radio"; "Filmed aboard the palatial S.S. Normandie"; "The Million Dollar Fashion Parade with The Famous Milgrim Models"; there is a complicated plot involving a radio singer and a ballet dancer, and another couple, but really it is just a framework for lots of singing and dancing, and by having the stars start in New York City, and take a cruise on the S.S. Normandie, and then go to Paris, France, there are tons of wonderful locations as well!) starring Frank Parker, Tamara ("Radio's Sensational Singing Star"), Jack Dempsey, Helen Lynd, Arthur Pierson, The Tune Twisters, and Abe Lyman and his Californians. Note that there is a sequence early in the movie where the stars meet at Jack Dempsey's famous restaurant in New York City (which the former heavyweight champion had opened after he retired), and the legendary boxer himself appeared in that scene in a cameo role, and he is prominently billed and pictured on the posters for the movie! If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster had tiny paper loss at just a few crossfolds and a very few creases, scuffs, and tiny tears on parts of some foldlines. Overall, the poster was in very good to fine condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was well backed, but at some point, it was roughly handled and there are now creases in the bottom 3", mostly in the excess linen, but affecting the bottom 2" of the right half of the poster, which is now noticeably creased (I would think a restorer could repair this area without re-backing the poster, and it would not be very noticeable if the poster is displayed as it is).
