Fields, Zasu Pitts, Evelyn Venable, Kent Taylor, Charles Middleton, and Virginia Weidler. Note that W.C. Fields plays a neighbor who courts a friend of Mrs. Wiggs, but because he was a big star, he got high billing in this movie that received favorable reviews!

This means the poster was backed onto a light paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (it means that the poster must be handled carefully, as the backing does not give it much added strength, but it is similar to having an unrestored poster, and yet it has been properly preserved). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards. What IS paperbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. Prior to paperbacking, the poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and tiny scuffs and tiny bits of surface paper loss on parts of the folds. It had pinholes around the edges and a 1" vertical tear in the far right of the middle fold, in the dark background area, and some scuffs and smudges in the solid background areas. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was backed onto a thin paper backing with no excess, and no restoration was performed. It has acquired some tiny creases in the extreme outer edges of the borders. In spite of these minor defects, it will display well on the new owner's wall! Learn More about condition grades
