A Circa Late 1940s (from the first Belgian release) Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Belgian Movie Poster (measures 11" x 17" [28 x 43 cm]) (Learn More) Juke Girl, the 1942 Curtis Bernhardt Florida migrant farmer mystery crime thriller ("Sure she's easy to meet... but try and forget her!"; "She's a good girl for guys to let alone!"; "She makes her living the hard way - the 5c-a-dance way! But don't get ideas, buddy - she's a one-man woman - and that man ain't you!"; "From a story by Theodore Pratt") starring Ann Sheridan, Ronald Reagan, Richard Whorf, George Tobias, Gene Lockhart, Alan Hale Sr., Betty Brewer, Willie Best, Howard Da Silva, Willard Robertson, and Donald McBride. Note that you may not be familiar with the name Richard Whorf, who plays the third lead in this movie, but you likely saw him in some early 1940s movies (his most famous role was in Yankee Doodle Dandy as Sam Harris, George M. Cohan's partner). Whorf was a successful Broadway actor who went to Hollywood in 1941 when all the top stars went to war, and he had success during the war, but once the war was over, so was his acting career. But he successfully transitioned to being a prominent TV director, including many episodes of The Beverly Hillbillies. He also was a set designer and in his spare time studied Native American Languages (one of his brothers was a linguist)! 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 was printed on the back of an old map! During World War II in Belgium, there was a massive paper shortage, and so they used whatever paper they could find to print the movie posters, and in many cases they used old maps, and printed the movie posters on the reverse. They often also made the posters smaller, so they could get more posters printed. This practice continued for a couple of years after World War II. Since these posters are original, and since all such posters are printed on the back of maps or other posters, this is not considered a defect by almost all collectors. Condition: very good to fine. The top 1 1/2" of the poster was folded back at one time and there area a few pin holes in the corners. The poster is otherwise in nice condition and it displays well.
