An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Italian Photobusta Movie Poster (measures 13 1/2" x 19") (Learn More)

Wife Vs. Secretary, the 1936 Clarence Brown romantic love misunderstanding comedy (about a happily married couple; the husband has a beautiful secretary, and the wife misunderstands something that happens and she thinks that her husband might be having an affair) starring Clark Gable, Jean Harlow (in the title role as the secretary, Helen Wilson), Myrna Loy (in the title role as the wife, Linda Stanhope), May Robson, George Barbier, James Stewart (Jimmy Stewart; in his fourth movie role!), Hobart Cavanaugh, and John Qualen. Note that Jean Harlow plays Clark Gable's secretary, and in the movie, he is madly in love with wife Myrna Loy, and it is only a misunderstanding that causes Loy to think there is something between Gable and Harlow, and the entire movie is very innocent. Note too that Harlow's boyfriend is played by an extremely young Jimmy Stewart!

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this is an ultra-rare pre-World War II Italian photobusta. One virtually never sees original 1930s Italian photobustas (likely because they were destroyed during paper drives in World War II, when paper was in very short supply throughout Europe). Note that this photobusta (like the other 1930s Italian photobustas we have seen) is printed on a heavy window card-like paper stock, and that the image is a "tipped-in" still from the movie (similar to rare Mexican lobby cards from the 1930s). Also note that this Italian photobusta measures 13 1/2" x 19" and is unfolded.

Condition: very good. The photobusta has pinholes around the edges. The tipped-in still has creases and scuffs in the solid black areas, but they are not very distracting.
