Note this was Austrian actress Rose Stradner's first movie. She seemed to have a promising career, but in 1939, she married Joseph L. Mankiewicz and quickly had two sons, and that greatly curtailed her career, which is why you may well have never heard of her! 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 we have never before auctioned this window card! Note that it looks like the left, right, and bottom borders might have been trimmed, but actually, they were printed with a "full bleed", something MGM was doing at the time, which means there were no white borders when the card was printed (although the top blank area has been neatly trimmed off). The card now measures 14" x 16" [36 x 41 cm]. Also note that 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: poor to fair. Learn More about condition grades
