An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Australian Daybill Movie Poster (db; measures 15" x 40" [38 x 102 cm]) (Learn More) A Lady to Love, the 1930 Victor Sjostrom (he was a major Swedish director of the 1910s and 1920s, and late in his life, he turned to acting, giving memorable performances in several Ingmar Bergman movies, most notably "Wild Strawberries") romantic love triangle melodrama (based on a play by Sidney Howard; a wealthy California vineyard owner has romantic correspondence with a San Francisco waitress, and he sends a picture of his young handsome brother and pretends it is him; when his girlfriend meets him, he reveals the deception, and she seemingly does not mind, but then she falls for his brother) starring Vilma Banky, Edward G. Robinson (in his fifth movie role!), Robert Ames (ironically, Ames is 4 years older than Robinson, playing the younger brother!), Richard Carle, and Lloyd Ingraham. Note that this movie was made the year before Little Caesar, and Edward G. Robinson was not yet a star, and so the advertising for the movie entirely focuses on Vilma Banky! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Fred Powis Important Added Info: Note that long time Australian collectors rightly point out that this poster is surely one of the very earliest movie posters that depict Edward G. Robinson, and that it is surely very rare! Also, note 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.
UPDATED 05/11/2016: Note that we have updated the Important Added Info section. Condition: good to very good. There are some tack holes around the edges. Some of the tack holes have associated staining around them. There are smudges scattered in various areas (more around the edges from handling).
