An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Bedtime Worries, the 1933 Robert McGowan Our Gang juvenile comedy short (produced by Hal Roach; in this entry, where Spanky was still 4 years old, he is afraid to sleep alone, so he still sleeps with his parents, and his dad wants him in his own room; whenever he is put there, he yells for his parents, and the dad starts ignoring him; but then of course, a burglar breaks in and tells Spanky that he's Santa, and Spanky yells for his parents that Santa is stealing their stuff, but they of course still ignore him, thinking he is making it up) starring Gay Seabrook, Emerson Treacy, Matthew 'Stymie' Beard, Tommy Bond, George 'Spanky' McFarland, Georgie Billings, Jerry Tucker, and Pete the Pup 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 poster has a great stone litho showing Spanky, Stymie, Pete the Pup, and other Our Gang members. Also note that almost all Our Gang first release one-sheets are extremely rare. But the ones from the sound movies of the 1930s are far more rare than those from the silent movies of the 1920s (although the silent ones are themselves quite rare!). The likely reason for this is that in the 1920s, many movies were short subjects (only one or two reels), so most theaters probably exhibited posters from several of the ones they were showing, including probably the Our Gangs, which were quite popular. But in the middle 1930s, just about all movies were feature length, and movies showed either one or two features, and they likely didn't display posters for the shorts they were showing, which would likely explain the unbelievable rarity of 1930s Our Gang one-sheets!
