An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Australian Daybill Movie Poster (db; measures 15" x 40" [38 x 102 cm]) (Learn More) Paris Honeymoon, the 1939 Frank Tuttle France romantic love triangle musical comedy ("Based on a Story by Angela Sherwood"; about a rich Texas man who is engaged to a French aristocrat, but when he goes there for his wedding, he meets a beautiful but poor girl whom he falls madly in love with) starring Bing Crosby, Franciska Gaal, Akim Tamiroff, Shirley Ross, Edward Everett Horton, and Ben Blue NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Richardson Studio Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned three examples of this Australian daybill, and the last one was 9 years ago. The buyer of one of those examples had the poster linenbacked and has now reconsigned it to us, so this is still only one of three examples 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. What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had paper loss in the top left blank corner and a 2" tear in the upper left border extending into the red background. It had a 1 1/2" tear near the middle of the right border. Overall, the poster was in very 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.
