An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Movie Window Card (WC; measures 14" x 22" [36 x 56 cm]) (Learn More)

Thunder Afloat, the 1939 George B. Seitz romantic World War I (WWI) submarine Navy Naval sailor military action melodrama ("True drama of America's 'Suicide Fleet'!"; "Get ready America! Here's the greatest sea-thriller of them all!" about an older man and a younger man who are enemies, but when they end up serving together in the Navy in World War I on the same boat, they manage to put aside their differences to work shoulder to shoulder to stop the German U-boats; while the movie took place in World War I, it was obviously intended to stir up U.S. patriotism against Germany just before World War II, and no doubt it was very successful doing so!) starring Wallace Beery, Chester Morris, Virginia Grey, Douglass Dumbrille, and Carl Esmond

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that the card measures very slightly under 14" x 22" (an extremely tiny amount in each direction!) and has no left, right, or bottom blank borders, but it has NOT been trimmed (this was done at a time when MGM was experimenting with having as few borders as possible). Also note that the window card was folded across the center at one time. Because the poster has condition issues, we don't want to re-fold the window card prior to mailing, because we believe that re-folding the window card would potentially lessen its condition even more. If you specifically request it, we will re-fold this window card, but you will not be able to return it.

Condition: good. There is an uneven tear in the "Y" of "BEERY" at middle right.
