Auction History Result 2t1464 NIGHT AT THE OPERA herald 1935 Groucho, Chico & Harpo Marx, Hirschfeld art, ultra rare! Date Sold 8/30/2022 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Herald (measures 7 3/4" x 11 3/4" [20 x 30 cm]; 4 pages) (Learn More) A Night at the Opera, the classic 1935 Sam Wood screwball musical opera romantic comedy starring the Marx Brothers (Groucho Marx as Otis B. Driftwood, Chico Marx as Fiorello, and Harpo Marx as Tomasso), Kitty Carlisle (as Rosa Castaldi), Allan Jones (as Ricardo Baroni), Walter Woolf King (billed as "Walter King"; as Rodolfo Lassparri), Sig Ruman (as Herbert Gottlieb), and Margaret Dumont (as Mrs. Claypool). Note that MGM added a romantic plot to the Marx Bros. typical screwball comedy, and it really adds to the movie, as Carlisle and Jones have real chemistry together, and their songs are excellent. Of course, this is also the movie that has the Marx Bros.' most famous comedy scene, the "stateroom" scene, plus the great scene of Groucho and Chico attempting to sign a contract! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Al Hirschfeld Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned an example of this herald! We once auctioned an Australian herald 18 years ago, and that sold for $381! Condition: fair. The herald has paper loss in two corners, which affects the text and a small part of the image. There are two punch holes in one side. Obviously, one would much prefer a better condition example of this extremely rare herald, but it might be very hard to find that!
