Adults Only"; "None under High School age admitted"; "A moment of delirious freedom"; about a girl who makes poor choices, and ends up in a compromising situation with a sleazy man, and she kills him, and she is put on trial for his murder, and before the jury can return, she jumps out a window, never finding out they had declared her not guilty, because her mother had not properly educated her in sex education!) starring John St. Polis, Robert Frazer, Jean Lucy, Gertrude Astor, and Isabel La Mal 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 it is impossible to say exactly when this poster is from. It is the only style of one-sheet we have auctioned on this title (we have auctioned a different example of this one sheet style, and it auctioned for $154), and it is possible there was an earlier one-sheet, but if so, we have not seen it. The poster has a "silkscreen"-like look to it, typical of "roadshow" one-sheets, for when a movie like this played in small towns across America. We have seen a herald that is clearly from 1935, and that has the same taglines as this poster, so that leads us to think it could well be from 1935. But please do not bid on this poster unless you can accept the uncertainties as to when exactly it is from and whether it is a first release poster. Note also that this one-sheet measures 28" x 42" [71 x 107 cm]. Condition: fair to good. There is a great deal of scuffing in the title and in the background behind the title. There is also scuffing along all of the folds and in portions of the restoration of the poster. There are pinholes, stains, small tears and tiny paper loss around the edges of the poster and in parts of the foldlines. 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.
