THREE BLIND MICE (1938) 9879

full.threeblindmice 6sh 9879

Original 20th Century-Fox Six Sheet Poster (81×81) for the William A. Seiter comedy, THREE BLIND MICE (1938) starring Loretta Young, Joel McCrea, David Niven, Stuart Erwin, Marjorie Weaver, Pauline Moore, Binnie Barnes, and Jane Darwell. The film has a plot straight out of the Hollywood playbook, but done here with wit and some style. Three sisters move to the Land of Milk and Honey – California of course – from the flatlands of Kansas (WIZARD OF OZ?) – to find a rich husband. The spearhead in this operation is Young, beautiful as ever, and posing as a social butterfly — and she soon finds Joel McCrea, presumed to be rich but actually broke. The other two sisters pose as her “staff” and they too seek Cupid’s arrow and in surprising ways. So the theme is The Path to True Love, marriage, matrimony, golddiggers! The Motion Picture Guide summarizes the film this way: “This is a delightful comedy, well scripted and directed with a sense of fun [by William A Seiter]. The players are clearly enjoying themselves making the most they can out of the good material. The easily adaptable plot later turned up in two remakes: MOON OVER MIAMI (1941) and THREE LITTLE GIRLS IN BLUE (1946).” The six sheet poster is gorgeous, a prime example of the 20th Century Fox style of posters with nice portraits, well done, of the principal players and a colorful layout. This original six sheet poster is folded and in very fine condition. Six sheets are generally printed on four panels and no exception here. The individual panels are butted together for display. Six sheets may be linen backed. Ask us about poster mounting and conservation.
