Original Paramount Pictures Insert Poster (14×36) for the George Abbott drama, MY SIN (1931) starring Fredric March, Tullulah Bankhead, Harry Davenport, and Scott Kolk. This film was Bankhead’s third for Paramount, and her “niche” was still being refined. In this film, she plays Carlotta, the “hostess” of a Panamanian cantina. The plots for most of her films seemed to be caricatures of “True Confessions.” Indeed, her “sin” in this film is her sordid past and its cover-up. This original insert poster has been gel-backed and touchup applied to pinholes in the top border, a tear in the left and bottom border, and small chips in the right border. Fine Plus.
