Walker, and produced by Hal Roach) starring Stan Laurel, Oliver Hardy (Laurel and Hardy; in their first full length talking picture), June Marlowe, Wilfred Lucas, Walter Long, James Finlayson, and Otto Fries.

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned one example of this poster, and the person who purchased that poster has now reconsigned it to us, so this is still the only example of this poster we have ever auctioned!

Also note that we have auctioned a different French one-panel from this movie that we believe to be from the late 1950s. We believe this poster is from the late 1940s or early 1950s. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here.

Condition: good. There is some darkening on the back of the part of the poster that was on the outside when it was fully folded. There are some creases and several tears along the folds that were on the outside when the poster was fully folded. There are some creases, smudges, and tiny tears on some folds, and some tiny paper loss at some crossfolds. There are a few small tape repairs on the back.
