Finklehoffe") starring Claudette Colbert, Fred MacMurray, Marjorie Main (nominated for the Best Supporting Actress Academy Award for this film; as Ma Kettle), Louise Albritton, Percy Kilbride (as Pa Kettle), Billy House, and Richard Long. Note that the minor characters in this movie, Ma & Pa Kettle, proved to be so popular that they were given their own movie immediately after this one, and there was a long running series of hillbilly "Kettles" comedies! AND The Green Scarf, the 1954 George More O'Ferrall English France courtroom legal lawyer crime murder mystery thriller ("From the famous novel by Guy de Cars"; about a French woman whose husband is blind, deaf, and mute, and he is accused of murdering a man, and famed lawyer Michael Redgrave takes the case of defending him, even though he has confessed to the killing) starring Michael Redgrave, Leo Genn, Ann Todd, Kieron Moore, Michael Medwin, and Jane Griffiths 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 this poster is double-sided, but not at all in the usual way! A theater owner needed a poster to advertise a showing of The Egg and I but they did not have one, so they took a regular poster for The Green Scarf, and they had someone paint an entire poster for The Egg and I on the back side, in the Hungarian language. So the person who purchases this poster will receive an actual hand-painted original poster, that is on the back of another poster! We have provided an image of each side, but please realize that the winner of this auction will receive ONE poster! 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.
UPDATED 09/30/2015: Note that we have updated the Important Added Info section. Condition: good to very good. The poster has various edge defects and the hand painted side of the poster shows signs of wear from being folded for some time and there are some areas of rubbing and smudges scattered throughout but otherwise it is in generally nice condition. The regular side has some pencil writing at lower right but is otherwise in generally nice condition as well. Please see our super-sized image to get a good sense of the condition of this item prior to placing a bid. Learn More about condition grades
