An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Window Card Movie Poster (WC; measures 14" x 22" [36 x 56 cm]) (Learn More) Pursuit, the 1935 Edwin L. Marin family kidnapping airplane aviation country road travel romantic melodrama ("Pretty girl detective gets her man!"; about a pilot who is hired in the midst of a custody case; the mother wants him to take her child to Mexico from California, so that her relatives can't get their hands on him until the custody case is over, but then the boy is reported kidnapped; the pilot is accompanied by a pretty young woman, and everything works out pretty much the way you think it would, but those who have seen the movie say that it moves well and is enjoyable) starring Chester Morris, Sally Eilers, Scotty Beckett, Henry Travers, and C. Henry Gordon. Note that Scotty Beckett took a break from his Our Gang shorts to appear in this movie. He was super successful as a child actor, and after he had success in "The Jolson Story" and "A Date with Judy" in the late 1940s, it looked like he would make a successful transition to adult roles, but that was not to be.

Important Added Info: Note that we have never auctioned this window card before and we have only previously a single one-sheet and a couple of lobby cards! Note also that this window card was never folded. Often window cards would be folded across the middle, because that would make them 11" x 14", and they could then be sent with standard folded posters. Most collectors put an added value on a window card that has never been folded. Note that it looks like the left, right, and bottom borders might have been trimmed, but actually, they were printed with a "full bleed", something MGM was doing at the time, which means there were no white borders when the card was printed (although the top blank area has been neatly trimmed off). The card now measures Condition: good. Learn More about condition grades
