Auction History Result 7w660 AMBASSADOR BILL insert R1936 Will Rogers close up & with Greta Nissen, ultra-rare! Date Sold 7/25/2019 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. A 1936 Re-Release Theatrical Folded Insert Movie Poster (measures 14" x 36" [36 x 91 cm]) (Learn More) Ambassador Bill, the 1931 Sam Taylor romantic political comedy (about the American ambassador to a small mythical European country who befriends the young heir to the throne, and he needs to help keep the boy alive!) starring Will Rogers (in the title role as Bill Harper), Greta Nissen, Marguerite Churchill, Gustav von Seyffertitz, Ray Milland, and Tad Alexander. Note that Tad Alexander, who co-stars in this movie, as the young King Paul of an unnamed foreign country, was making his film debut at the age of 9. He made nine more movies over the next three years, but then, he grew quite a bit, and could not play pre-teen roles! He trained himself to play the piano, and gave concerts! He left show business to join the military in World War II, and never returned to show business, passing away in 2012 in the age of 90. 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 is an extremely rare poster. We have never auctioned one in all our years of auctioning! Note also 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. Condition: good. The poster has what appears to be tiny black paint stains scattered mostly at upper left. There are a few scuff marks scattered in various areas and there is some separation in the left edge of the center horizontal fold. The back of the poster was used as a very elaborate ledger (and we have pictured the back - see our images). Strictly speaking it is a defect, however, certainly some may find it to be a very interesting historical addition to the poster! Learn More about condition grades
