Date Sold 1/10/2017Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Argentinean Movie Poster (measures 14 1/2" x 29" [37 x 74 cm]) (Learn More) Masked Emotions, the 1929 David Butler & Kenneth Hawks romantic crime thriller ("Story by Ben Ames Williams") starring George O'Brien, Nora Lane, James Gordon, J. Farrell MacDonald, Frank Hagney, and David Sharpe. Note that co-director Kenneth Hawks was a World War I veteran and graduated from Yale, and he seemed to have an incredibly bright future when he was signed to director for Fox Films, three years after his brother Howard started directing. He married Mary Astor in 1928, and he directed this movie and two others, but on January 2, 1930, he was killed in a plane crash during the filming of his last movie, and that left Mary Astor a widow, and the studio completed that movie and released it two months after his passing.

Important Added Info: Note that this is one of a remarkable find of 143 Argentinean posters from 1926 to 1929 that were recently discovered! They all measure approximately 14 1/4" x 28 1/4", which was one of the two main sizes created for Argentinean movie posters at that time (the other was a poster that measured 29" x 43"). It is likely that prior to this amazing find, there were only a small number of these posters known to exist in the entire world, and after these 143 are auctioned, it is unlikely that there will be many more discovered, even over the coming decades! This is a rare opportunity to purchase an Argentinean poster from the late 1920s, a time when virtually no movie posters from any country are known to exist! Note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: good to very good. There is slight discoloration scattered in some areas of the poster from exposure to moisture. It is otherwise in generally nice condition. Learn More about condition grades
