An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More) The Cock-Eyed World, the 1929 Raoul Walsh pre-Code U.S. Marine Corps military romantic love triangle musical comedy ("A sob... a sigh... a thrill... a cry!"; "Laugh till the tears roll down your back!"; "All talking, singing, laughing Fox Movietone comedy drama of hot mammas and fighting Marines"; "Two Roughneck Romeos Love and Fight and Talk"; "Story by Laurence Stallings and Maxwell Anderson"; this was a sequel of sorts to "What Price Glory", although in some ways it is a remake of that silent movie, with McLaglen & Lowe reprising their roles as tough Marines who compete for the same women all over the globe; there was one more sequel called "Women of All Nations") starring Victor McLaglen, Edmund Lowe, Lili Damita (billed as "Lily Damita"), Soledad Jimenez, and El Brendel. Note that this was a pre-Code movie with a lot of risque dialog and behavior (at one point, El Brendel introduces his girlfriend as "the lay of the land", and then points to a map on her hand!). NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that ANY movie paper from this movie is incredibly rare. We have only previously auctioned some lobby cards and stills from this movie (and NO other movie paper) until we received this half-sheet! Also note that because this poster is fragile, we don't want to roll the poster prior to mailing, because we believe that rolling it could cause it to become creased or cause other damage that would lessen its condition and we will sent it in a large flat package. If you specifically request it, we will roll this poster, but the new buyer will have to accept responsibility if there is any damage caused by rolling it. Condition: very good. The poster was never machine folded. Someone once folded it vertically in five different unevenly spaced areas (this was surely done when the movie came out and the poster was brand new, because they are very faint from the front). There is a 2" tear near the middle of the left border that was repaired with tape from the back and some minor other border defects, with a few stains in the right border. Other than the above, the poster has survived in surprisingly nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
