An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Slim, the 1937 Ray Enright power linemen romantic love triangle melodrama (about the dangers faced by men who string high-power lines, at great personal risk; "Two reckless linemen in love with one girl!"; "Hands off! High tension love!") starring Pat O'Brien, Henry Fonda (in the title role as Slim), Margaret Lindsay, Stuart Erwin, J. Farrell MacDonald, Dick Purcell, Joseph Sawyer, Craig Reynolds, John Litel, and Jane Wyman (in her fifth credited movie role!) 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: This was printed by Associated Displays Corporation which was a company based in New York City. Before it was discovered by noted poster dealer/historian Walter Reuben, collectors did not know the name of this company (and thought it to be located in the Midwest), and it is often referred to as the "other company" (and we will continue to refer to it that way, since collectors know it that way). From 1936 to roughly 1941, this company printed its own one-sheets and lobby card sets (and a very few inserts, half-sheets, three-sheets, 40x60s and stills) for three major studio movies (Warner Brothers, Paramount and United Artists, but no other studios). The items almost always feature a tiny legal disclaimer and cast credits only. The posters and lobby cards are from the original release of the movie, and almost always have completely different artwork from the regular studio release. They did this by combining elements from different film scenes onto one poster or card. Sometimes, "other company" posters have images that are the equal of those from the regular studio release posters. We have only auctioned two of these posters before and the last time was in 2006! Condition: fair to good. The poster has significant vertical foldline separation that makes it fragile. There are some large tears around the edges (partially repaired with tape from the back).
