An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Window Card Movie Poster (WC; measures 14" x 22") (Learn More)

The Great Ziegfeld, the 1936 Robert Z. Leonard (nominated for the Best Director Academy Award for this film) biographical romantic love triangle musical biography ("The greatest entertainment of our time!"; "300 girls"; "50 stars"; "10 shows in one"; "The sensation of the century!"; winner of the Best Picture Academy Award; a highly fictionalized biography of the legendary showman, Flo Ziegfeld) starring William Powell (in the title role as Florenz Ziegfeld), Myrna Loy (as Billie Burke), Luise Rainer (winner of the Best Actress Academy Award for this film; as Anna Held), Frank Morgan, Fanny Brice (in a cameo as herself!), Virginia Bruce, Reginald Owen, Ray Bolger (in a cameo as himself!), Ernest Cossart, Nat Pendleton, Harriet Hoctor, Joseph Cawthorn (billed as "Joseph Cawthorne"), Joan Holland, Raymond Walburn, and Esther Muir. Note that this movie gave Luise Rainer her second consecutive Best Actress Oscar. But soon after, she turned her back on Hollywood and moved to Europe. Perhaps that partly explains why she had such a long life (she passed away in 2014 at age 104)!

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: 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: good. The card has nail holes in the corners and paper loss in the bottom left corner. There were some faint smudges scattered in the card, with some tiny areas of surface paper loss, including a few tiny bits in all three stars' faces, as seen in our image. There was a 1" tear near the middle of the bottom border. The card has never had any restoration. Certainly, a talented restorer could repair the above defects, and after proper restoration, the poster will look great, but bear in mind the defects and the needed restoration before placing a bid on this poster!
