An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Docks of New Orleans, the 1948 Derwin Abrahams Louisiana Asian detective waterfront mystery crime thriller ("Suggested by Earl Derr Biggers' character") starring Roland Winters ("as Charlie Chan"), Virginia Dale, Mantan Moreland, John Gallaudet, Victor Sen Yung (billed as "Victor Sen Young"), George J. Lewis, Douglas Fowley, Harry Hayden, and Carol Forman. Note that the very first Charlie Chan movie was "House Without a Key" in 1925, with George Kuwa as Chan. In 1927, "The Chinese Parrot" (directed by Paul Leni) starred Sojin Kamiyama as Chan. In 1929 came the third movie, "Behind That Curtain", starring E.L. Park as Charlie Chan. 1931 brought "Charlie Chan Carries On", starring Warner Oland in the first of many movies with him as the Asian detective, and he was later replaced by Sidney Toler and then Roland Winters (there would ultimately be 47 Charlie Chan movies!). Of course, Charlie Chan is one of the most memorable literary creations ever, from author Earl Derr Biggers, but because politically correct-minded people have viewed the character as outdated, the movies are rarely shown, which is a shame! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: good. The poster has some orange paint staining on back at center that very slightly bleeds through to the front (mostly in an area of black paper where the staining is not very noticeable or distracting). It has pinholes around the edges and near the top crossfold and there is some small separation in each corner. After linenbacking the poster will display well, but bear in mind its defects before placing a bid. Learn More about condition grades
