An Original Vintage Theatrical Mini Movie Window Card (WC; measures 8" x 14" [20 x 36 cm]) (Learn More)

Robert Louis Stevenson's Kidnapped, the 1938 Alfred L. Werker pirate swashbuckling adventure thriller (based on the novel by Robert Louis Stevenson; produced by Darryl F. Zanuck; set in the late 18th century, about a young Scottish heir who is kidnapped by his uncle and sent to sea, hopefully to never be seen again, but he returns with the help of a sailor he meets on the ship) starring Warner Baxter, Freddie Bartholomew, Arleen Whelan, C. Aubrey Smith, Reginald Owen, John Carradine, Nigel Bruce, Miles Mander, Ralph Forbes, H.B. Warner, Arthur Hohl, E.E. Clive, Halliwell Hobbes, and Montagu Love. Note that the posters for this movie prominently credit all top fourteen actors in the cast, which is certainly unusual for anything other than a movie with an all-star cast! Also note that this was Arleen Whelan's first real role, after a small uncredited part. In the publicity for the movie, they said that she is a "titian-haired Cinderella girl who rose almost overnight from a manicurist in a Hollywood beauty shop to a leading lady for the movies".

Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned three examples of this mini window card, and only one in the last 10 years!

Condition: fair to good. The card had light water staining, and someone bleached the card, and either before or after that, the reds have faded noticeably. Also, there are tears in the borders that were repaired with tape from the back.
