Harkrider Ziegfeld Follies romantic musical ("Produced under personal supervision of Florenz Ziegfeld"; there is a nominal plot about a small town girl coming to the big city wanting to be a star and fending off wolves, but the movie is really just a showcase for Ziegfeld Follies musical and comedy acts, plus beautiful scantily clad girls, just as they were presented on stage; in between acts, the camera often shifts to the audience, showing major celebrities of the day like Texas Guinan, New York Mayor Jimmy Walker, and Adolph Zukor) starring "in revue" Mary Eaton, Eddie Cantor, Helen Morgan, Rudy Vallee, Dan Healy, Johnny Weissmuller (in his first movie, uncredited in a bit part as a barely-dressed Adonis), and Evelyn Groves (as Aphrodite).

Often window cards would be folded across the middle, because that would make them 11" x 14", and they could then be sent with standard folded posters. Most collectors put an added value on a window card that has never been folded. Condition: very good to fine. The card was in excellent condition. It was displayed in a frame, which caused it to slightly darken, except in the extreme outer edges of the blank borders. Learn More about condition grades
