An experience you'll Never forget!"; "A story as thrilling as its stars!") starring Charles Boyer, Rita Hayworth, Ginger Rogers, Henry Fonda, Charles Laughton, Edward G.

Note that W.C. Fields starred in a chapter from this compilation film, but it was cut before the movie was released. As far as we know, Fields is not credited or shown on any movie paper for this film. The cut chapter was restored in a 1996 video re-release 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 while we have twice before auctioned the style A half-sheet, we have never before auctioned this style B half-sheet! Also note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (except somewhat heavier). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards, and lobby cards. Note that because this poster was paperbacked onto a thicker paper backing, it CAN'T be sent rolled (someone could conceivably roll it or try to do so, but we think it would have a strong chance of lessening its condition, so we will only send it in a very large flat package, unless the buyer insists, and then they would be responsible for any damage). What IS paperbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good. Prior to paperbacking, the poster was never folded. It had many light creases and scuffs scattered throughout. It had an 8" tear in the left border that went across the yellow area between the image and the credits box. It had pinholes, tears, and some light stains around the edges. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can clearly see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects, and someone put a piece of clear tape in the center of the top and bottom blank borders.
