Important Added Info: Note that this poster was created by 20th Century Fox for use by theaters showing re-releases of their 1930s and 1940s Laurel & Hardy movies in 1940s. Theaters would order this poster, which had a large blank area at the bottom. Sometimes the studio would overprint the stock poster with the title of a specific movie, and sometimes they sent a series of large paper snipes with the titles of specific entries of the series, so the theater could paste in each snipe as needed, thus getting many posters for the price of one. This particular poster is overprinted with the title "Big Noise". What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: fair to good.
