An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Insert Movie Poster (measures 14" x 36" [36 x 91 cm]) (Learn More) Adorable, the 1933 William Dieterle (billed as "Wilhelm Dieterle") romantic comedy ("Happy-Romantic-Lilting-Superb!"; "A Joyous Romance in Rhythm"; "Story by Paul Frank and Billie Wilder [Billy Wilder]"; "Music by Werner Richard Heymann"; the age old story of a beautiful princess who pretends to be a poor commoner, and she falls in love with a worker, but the Prime Minister of her country wants her to marry a prince she has never met) starring Janet Gaynor, Henri Garat (billed as "Henry Garat"), Sterling Holloway, C. Aubrey Smith, and Herbert Mundin. Note that this movie was made two years after director William Dieterle emigrated from Germany to the United States, and he is billed under his birth name of Wilhelm Dieterle. Also, this is one of the earliest U.S. movies for legendary director/writer Billy Wilder after HE emigrated from Germany, and he is billed under the name of "Billie" Wilder (especially odd, because his birth name was Samuel Wilder!). 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 is an extremely rare poster. We have never auctioned one in all our years of auctioning! Note also that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: fair. The poster was removed from a wall and it has glue staining throughout the back that has substantially darkened the front. It has creases and tears of varying lengths around the edges and along some horizontal folds and there are many tape repairs on back. The rare poster is in need of restoration, and certainly a competent restorer could repair the defects described above, but please bear in mind the cost of restoration before placing a bid.
