An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Style B Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More)

Lady By Choice, the 1934 David Burton romantic screwball comedy ("Men who loved her grew sadder - - but wiser!"; "She was sentenced to marry the man she loved!"; "Story by Dwight Taylor"; a wild story about a sexy fan dancer who is arrested and while in court waiting her turn, a drunken old lady is about to be sentenced, and the fan dancer's publicist suggests that she be allowed to "adopt" the old lady as a publicity stunt, and the judge agrees, and that is just the beginning of this wacky romantic comedy!) starring Carole Lombard, May Robson, Roger Pryor, Walter Connolly, and Arthur Hohl

Important Added Info: Note that we have never auctioned this extremely rare poster in all our years of auctioning, and we have only auctioned some stills, lobby cards, and two mini window cards for this film but no other movie posters for it whatsoever! Also note that the poster was folded at one time and it had tape repairs to the back of the folds. It CAN'T be sent rolled in a tube, because of the tape repairs on the back and rolling it would surely damage it, while sending it in a large flat package that measures 24" x 30" would not. So bear in mind that his poster will be sent in a very large flat package and not a tube.

Note that this item needs to be shipped in an oversized flat package. Most of these items absolutely can only be sent in flat packages, and could not possibly be rolled into a tube. Some of them might SEEM like they could be rolled in a tube, like a half-sheet, but they can't. The reason these items are in this auction is specifically because they CAN'T be rolled (because rolling any of them would damage them, even if they somehow can be rolled). So please bear in mind that this item must be sent in a LARGE flat package (the size of the package will depend on the size of the item when ready for shipping), and bear this added expense in mind before placing a bid on it. IN THE CASE OF EXTREMELY LARGE FLAT ITEMS, THE SHIPPING COST WILL BE VERY HIGH, SO PLEASE DO NOT BID WITHOUT THINKING ABOUT THAT ADDED SHIPPING AMOUNT, AND INCLUDE THAT AMOUNT IN WHAT YOU BID (so if you would pay $150, but the shipping is likely $100, then only bid $50). And those who live outside the U.S. and who do not have a U.S. address to ship to SHOULD NOT BID AT ALL ON EXTREMELY LARGE FLAT ITEMS, BECAUSE THEY COST HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS TO SEND OUTSIDE THE U.S.

Condition: fair to good. The poster was folded, and it had separation, creases, tears and tiny paper loss on parts of both folds, with paper loss at the crossfold and in three ends of the folds. It also had some other paper loss in the blank borders, and some creases and scuffs scattered through the poster. Someone put some tape om the back of the above tears and separation, but otherwise left the poster as is. Obviously this extremely rare poster can be "rescued" by a talented restorer, but bear all of the above in mind before bidding.
