An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked French "Affiche" Movie Poster (23x32; measures 22 1/4" x 30 1/4" [57 x 77 cm]) (Learn More) Stan Laurel (born Arthur Stanley Jefferson) was an actor from the 1910s to the 1950s. He, along with his partner Oliver Hardy, is best remembered as part of the great comedy team "Laurel and Hardy". He had a solo career in the early 1920s, but in 1926, he joined with Hardy (who had been a major star in the mid 1910s), and they made many legendary movies, including Sons of the Desert, Way Out West, Big Business, Helpmates, The Music Box, Tit for Tat, Towed in a Hole, Them Thar Hills, and Liberty. He passed away in 1965 at the age of 74. In 2019, a film biography, "Stan & Ollie", starring John C. Reilly and Steve Coogan, was released, and while it did what most film biographies did, which is to play fast and loose with the truth, it was generally very well received and one can only hope it will cause new generations to seek out this classic duo's wonderful movies (both features and shorts)! Artist: Joseph Benari Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this French poster! We know that there was a companion poster to this one, with great art of Oliver Hardy. We have seen these posters identified as being from 1938, but we can't say for certain that is accurate, but it certainly would make sense. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. What IS linenbacking?
