OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

Original MGM One Sheet Poster (27×41) for Edward Ludwig’s youth musical, BORN TO SING (1942) starring Virginia Weidler, Ray McDonald, Leo Gorcey, Rags Ragland, Sheldon Leonard, Margaret Dumont, Douglas McPhail and Darla Hood. In the style of Judy Garland and Mickey Rooney, some of MGM’s junior league performers have a chance to “put on a show” of their own in the charming piece of nostalgia from the Culver City backlot. The poster is folded and in very good condition.

WHY GIRLS LEAVE HOME (1945) 9335

full.whygirlsleavehome-1sh-9335

Original PRC One Sheet Poster for William Berke drama, WHY GIRLS LEAVE HOME (1945), a question the answer to which has never been fully understood except for their desire to get out there and go, go, go. The film is a dull, poorly plotted programmer from one of the Poverty Row studios starring Lola Lane, Sheldon Leonard, Pamela Blake, Elisha Cook, Jr., and Paul Guilfoyle. But the poster is stellar stone lithography in the best B picture tradition: Lane sitting on a big question mark. The poster is folded, in very fine condition with some very minor flaws.

Original Paramount Pictures Scene Lobby Card (11×14) for the Frank Tuttle crime/spy comedy, LUCKY JORDAN (1942) starring Alan Ladd, Helen Walker, Sheldon Leonard, and Mabel Paige. This entertaining spy thriller with a comedic twist has cynical gambler and racketeer Lucky (Ladd) getting drafted, getting put into the stockade for insubordination, and fleeing back to his former gang. But he finds his old gang is involved with Nazi spies, and Lucky finds that his newborn patriotism (it was 1942) won’t allow him to help the enemy. Small tear, very good condition. Colors vivid.
