An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Window Card Movie Poster (WC; measures 14" x 22" [36 x 56 cm]) (Learn More) Harold Teen, the 1934 Murray Roth adolescent musical comedy ("From the comic strip by Carl Ed") starring Hal LeRoy (in the title role as Harold Teen), Rochelle Hudson, Patricia Ellis, Guy Kibbee, and Chick Chandler. Note that Harold Teen was an extremely popular comic strip starting in 1919. The first movie version from the strip was not until 1928, as a silent film starring Arthur Lake. In 1934, this version was made, and since Hal LeRoy was a professional dancer, the movie became a musical, with much singing and dancing! Harold Teen was also on radio and in comic books. During World War II, he joined the Navy, and his popularity waned drastically afterwards when the strip's creator Carl Ed died in 1958, the strip died with him. But "Harold Teen" was the first comic strip that centered on teenagers (before that time, there were many about kids or adults, but Ed tapped into a new market!).

Important Added Info: Note that first release 1934 movie paper of any sort from this movie is incredibly rare! We have sold a glass slide and a lobby card from this movie, but we have never seen ANY other poster from this movie until now! Also note 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. Condition: good to very good. The card has staining around the edges. There is a 2" tear in the lower left border and a 2" semi-circular tear in the bottom left of the image (mostly in the white between the comic strip and the blue border).
