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

The Hat Box Mystery, the 1946 Lambert Hillyer detective mystery crime murder thriller ("When the headlines cry murder...they may be shrieking at YOU!"; "Like a Jack-in-theHatbox... murder jumped out and claimed its victim!") starring Tom Neal, Pamela Blake, Allen Jenkins, Virginia Sale, and Leonard Penn. Note that Screen Guild Productions originally intended to release this short movie as part of a double bill package with "The Case of the Baby Sitter", but at the last minute, they changed their minds and released them separately (even though this film is only 44 minutes long) a couple weeks apart. This type of film was known as a "streamliner", which was between a short and a feature in length (usually running from 42 to 47 minutes).

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.

Condition: fair. The poster is quite brittle and there are MANY tears and areas of paper loss along the foldlines and edges, much of which has been repaired with tape from the back. There are yellowed pieces of tape on some edges.
