Yellow Canary, the 1943 (released in the U.S. in 1944) Herbert Wilcox English romantic crime thriller ("The yellow canary is a soft yellow thing. That's what you are Paxton... a soft, yellow thing..."; "He had a wife he didn't know, a kid he never saw and a life bouncing crazy like a blue note blowing wild. But the yellow canary could change all that by standing up like a man!"; "Blonde and Beautiful... Despised and Hateful!..."; "What is the hateful secret that makes this beautiful, wealthy girl scorned by women... feared by men? A drama unusual and thrilling explosive in impact!"; "The absorbing drama of a strange secret and the girl whose life it cursed!"; "She's my own sister, but... Someone ought to slap her face... No decent person would be seen with that... Any man who'd kiss her is... She's just an ordinary..."; "If you want to enjoy it, be there at the start. If you want your friends to enjoy it, don't spill the beans.") starring Anna Neagle, Richard Greene, Nova Pilbeam, Albert Lieven, and Lucie Mannheim

Condition: good to very 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 to very good condition prior to linenbacking. Generally, it had creases and tiny dots of paper loss down parts of the vertical foldline and a lesser amount of wear on the horizontal folds. There was a faint diagonal scuff in the upper right going through the lower part of the girl's face. The poster was pretty well backed, but 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 can imagine some collectors displaying this poster just as it is, and accepting the defects and signs of restoration, although other collectors would only display it if it had additional restoration.
