Auction History Result 2t447 TUGBOAT ANNIE WC '33 great art of America's sweethearts Wallace Beery kissing Marie Dressler! Date Sold 11/18/2008 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Window Card Movie Poster (WC; measures 14" x 22") (Learn More) Tugboat Annie, the 1933 Mervyn LeRoy nautical seafaring sailor romantic comedy ("America's Sweethearts Together Again!"; "Based on the Saturday Evening Post stories by Norman Reilly Raine") starring Marie Dressler (in the title role as Tugboat Annie), Wallace Beery, Robert Young, Maureen O'Sullivan, and Willard Robertson. Note that this movie was a big hit. MGM would have surely made a sequel, but Dressler passed away the following year. In 1940, they tried to revive the series with the sequel, "Tugboat Annie Sails Again", seven years later, with Marjorie Rambeau taking over the lead role. It likely was not very successful, because there were no more sequels with her, and it was not until 1945 that MGM tried yet again, this time with Jane Darwell in the lead role in "Captain Tugboat Annie". There were no more sequels! 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: This window card was never folded. Often window cards would be folded across the middle, because that would make them 11" x 14", and they could then be sent with standard folded posters. Most collectors put an added value on a window card that has never been folded. Condition: very good to fine. Note that the card measures very slightly under 14" x 22" (an extremely tiny amount in each direction!) and has next-to-no left, right, or bottom blank borders, but it has NOT been trimmed (this was done at a time when MGM was experimenting with having as few borders as possible).
