An Original Vintage Theatrical Paperbacked Window Card Movie Poster (WC; measures 14" x 22") (Learn More) Miss Pacific Fleet, the 1935 Ray Enright military beauty contest romantic comedy ("The Gimme Gals have landed and have the Marines well in hand!"; one of eight movies Blondell and Farrell made together; in this one, they are showgirls who get a promoter to run a beauty pageant at an amusement park, and they hope to make a lot of money, and find romance too) starring Joan Blondell, Glenda Farrell, Hugh Herbert, Allen Jenkins, Warren Hull, Eddie Acuff, Marie Wilson, Marie Windsor, and Minna Gombell. Note that Joan Blondell and Glenda Farrell appeared together in "Havana Widows" in 1933, where they played a pair of good-hearted showgirls who get in trouble. They re-teamed for five more movies in 1934 and 1935 (playing different characters, but in the same sorts of situations), all of which were quite popular at the box office!

This means the poster was backed onto a light paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (it means that the poster must be handled carefully, as the backing does not give it much added strength, but it is similar to having an unrestored poster, and yet it has been properly preserved). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards. Condition: very good. The poster had creases, tiny tears, and tiny areas of paper loss in the blank borders and there were some scuffs scattered in the image. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was nicely backed (with mostly border restoration), and displays well! Note that you can see faint scuffing in the image when you tilt it to the light, but from straight on, you don't notice it at all. Learn More about condition grades
