Better than Boom Town!"; about a con man who wins a bunch of money and marries the beautiful straight laced daughter of a judge and he opens a casino and wants to take over the town, but his wife wants him to "go straight") starring Clark Gable, Lana Turner, Frank Morgan, Claire Trevor, Marjorie Main, Albert Dekker, Henry O'Neill, and Chill Wills NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that, immediately after World War II, the U.S. occupied Japan and part of Germany, and many American movies were shown in both countries between 1945 and the end of the occupation. Most of the Japanese posters we have seen from that period and many of the German posters and programs from the same period have a "Motion Picture Export Association" (MPEA) circular printed logo on the poster or program, and apparently this was a program run in conjunction with the U.S. government. Since there were many U.S. servicemen in Japan and Germany at this time, many of these posters and programs have the title written in both Japanese (or German) and in English. Also, note that this Japanese B3 poster measures 13 1/4" x 20 1/2" [34 x 52 cm]. Also note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: good to very good. There is some dot staining along the lower edge (but it is mostly only noticeable on back). The rare B3 poster is otherwise in pretty nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
