An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Style B One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Wesley Ruggles' Too Many Husbands, the 1940 Wesley Ruggles romantic love triangle marital comedy ("This husband returned from the grave... But proved he was no ghost!"; "This husband returned from the office... To find he was no husband!"; "Just married... but to whom?"; "Which one?"; "Just Married"; "How happy she could be with either.... If the other would just go away!"; "A great director brings to the screen Somerset Maugham's hilariously merry play bout the gayest of marital mixups!"; "Based on the play by W. Somerset Maugham") starring Jean Arthur, Fred MacMurray, Melvyn Douglas, Harry Davenport, and Dorothy Peterson. This was one of many, many variations on the "Enoch Arden" theme, where a woman's husband is presumed dead, and she re-marries, and then the first husband returns from the dead, and naturally, she has difficulty knowing which husband to choose. Apparently, this version was very risque and daring, even though it was made long after the Production Code had supposedly ended that kind of behavior in movies! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: fair. The poster is brittle and there is a large tear at upper left and there is MUCH separation and tattering along the foldlines and edges with a few small tape repairs on the back. Please do not bid on this poster unless you can accept that it is brittle and will surely need to be linenbacked before it can be displayed. Learn More about condition grades
