Diamond Jim, the 1935 A. Edward Sutherland historical biographical melodrama (about legendary big money spender Diamond Jim Brady; "Mighty adventure thrill show!"; "The inside expose of a master of women!"; "See... The true story of the life, the loves and intrigues of Lillian Russell! See... The million dollar bribe! See... The unbelievable astounding inside revelation of the flashiest gambler in history!"; "From the book by Parker Morell"; written by Preston Sturges) starring Edward Arnold (in the title role; "as Diamond Jim"), Jean Arthur, Binnie Barnes (as Lillian Russell), Cesar Romero, Eric Blore, Hugh O'Connell, and Darby Jones.

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that for this re-release, the movie was billed as "Preston Sturges' Diamond Jim", even though Sturges was only one of the co-writers! This would almost surely mean that this re-release occurred during the time of Sturges' greatest popularity (the mid-1940s), at which time it would be a great asset to present the movie as a "Preston Sturges movie"!

Condition: fair. There is light rippling and discoloration throughout the poster from exposure to moisture. There are MANY tears around the edges of the poster and scattered throughout the poster, MUCH of which is repaired with tape from the back. Some of the tape repairs bleed through to the front. Please see our super-sized image to get a good sense of the condition of this item prior to placing a bid and please do not bid unless you can accept the defects described above, or you are willing to pay to have them properly restored.
