An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41") (Learn More) Bowery Bombshell, the 1946 Phil Karlson New York City juvenile delinquent bank robbery crime mystery slapstick comedy (this was the third in the "Bowery Boys" series of movies) starring the Bowery Boys (billed as "Leo Gorcey and The Bowery Boys"; including Leo Gorcey and Huntz Hall), Bobby Jordan, Billy Benedict, David Gorcey, Teala Loring, and Sheldon Leonard NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: good. This poster has been linenbacked, but it was not very well done, either because the restorer did not do a very good job, or because the years since it has been linenbacked have not been kind to the poster. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to linenbacking. Generally, it had paper loss at the bottom crossfold and many creases and scuffs in the bottom center of the poster, with some wear on the other folds and borders. The poster was not that well backed, because you can see signs of the above general defects and the restoration of the defects (in some cases, as should be immediately evident in our image, the linenbacker did no restoration to some of the defects). I would think few collectors would want to display it as it is, without someone performing some additional restoration. Certainly, a talented restorer could perform additional restoration (either with or without re-backing the poster), but it might be fairly expensive to have this done, so bear that in mind before you place a bid.
