An Original Vintage Theatrical Spanish Movie Herald (measures 3 1/2" x 5 1/2" [9 x 14 cm]; 2pg) (Learn More)

I Take This Woman, the 1940 W.S. Van Dyke (billed as "W.S. Van Dyke II") romantic marriage melodrama ("Man of the hour! Woman of flame!"; "Original story by Charles MacArthur"; about a doctor who helps poor people, who marries a beautiful woman who wants him to be rich, so he abandons the poor and starts treating rich people) starring Spencer Tracy, Hedy Lamarr, Verree Teasdale, Kent Taylor, Laraine Day, Marjorie Main, Willie Best, Louis Calhern, and Dalies Frantz. Note that this was a very troubled production. Josef von Sternberg was the original director and quit, and was replaced by Frank Borzage, but then the entire movie was shelved for 10 months. At that point, W.S. Van Dyke was hired, and he pretty much re-shot the entire movie, even though a lot of it had already been shot, and he also re-cast several of the lead roles (for example, Jack Carson is credited, but he only has one line that remained in the movie, and that one was dubbed, because he was not available to re-take it when the movie was being edited)!

Important Added Info: Note that when Spanish heralds have printing on the back, we picture both sides, but when they are blank on the back, we only picture the front.

Please note that Spanish heralds, like U.S. heralds, were printed in very large quantities, and then sent to individual theaters in Spain, and they would sometimes have the backs of them overprinted with their theater name and specific play dates. But because a movie might play in Spain for a period of a year or two (traveling from theater to theater), there is no guarantee that the date overprinted on the back of the herald is the same as the date that the herald was first printed (and the date that the movie first played in Spain).

Therefore, we don't list the date overprinted on the back of a herald as the date of the herald unless we know that was when the movie first played in Spain. If we believe the herald was printed earlier, then we use that date. If it is important to you that the date on the herald is the date the movie first opened, then please look at our image of the back of this herald to see if there is a different date printed on it.

Condition: good to very good. There is slight bleed-through from the printing on the back in the light colored areas (see our image).
