An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Rotogravure One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 28" x 42") (Learn More) Dollars and Sense, the 1920 Harry Beaumont silent romantic melodrama (based on the story "by Octavius Roy Cohen"; a wacky story of a beautiful young poor girl, who gets a job in a bakery, and the bakery owner pretends to be broke, and he sends her to her former boyfriend to see if she will ask him for money to help the baker, but when she does, she discovers that the bakery owner was only kidding, and now that she proved her love, he has a minister waiting, and they get married) starring Madge Kennedy, Kenneth Harlan, Willard Louis, Florence Deshon, and Richard Tucker 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 this is one of a very interesting group of silent one-sheets from the late 1910s and early 1920s that were found under a carpet in a VERY old house! We have no idea why, but at some point in the early 1920s, someone took around 30 one-sheet posters and placed them in a stack under a carpet (perhaps to hide them?). They stayed there undisturbed for the next 75 or so years, until someone ripped up the carpet and found them. MANY OF THE POSTERS HAD SUSTAINED CONSIDERABLE DAMAGE, WHILE OTHERS WERE NOT THAT DAMAGED AT ALL. All of these posters absolutely need expert professional restoration (obviously, some will require much more restoration than others), but in many cases, the poster we are offering may well be the only surviving example of that poster, so it would seem they are all well worth "rescuing". But please do not bid on any of these posters unless you have read our description of their condition, and have carefully studied our super-sized image, and unless you are prepared to pay to have the poster properly restored. Note that some of the posters measure different sizes (some may be trimmed) and we have noted their sizes. Finally, note that this one-sheet measures 28" x 42". Please do not bid on this poster thinking it is 27" x 41". Condition: fair. There is some discoloration and staining throughout the poster. There are many tack holes scattered throughout the poster and there are some tears and small areas of paper loss around the edges. Please do not bid on this poster unless you are willing to accept its defects or have it restored! Learn More about condition grades
