The Flame of New Orleans, the 1941 Rene Clair Louisiana romantic love triangle comedy (about a beautiful cabaret singer who can't choose between a rich banker and a dashing sea captain) starring Marlene Dietrich, Bruce Cabot, Roland Young, Mischa Auer, Andy Devine, Melville Cooper, Eddie Quillan, Laura Hope Crews, Frank Jenks, Theresa Harris, Clarence Muse, and Shemp Howard (in an uncredited role as an "Oyster Bed Cafe Waiter"!)
NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.
Artist: Alberto Vargas
Important Added Info: Note that this is an very rare poster. We have auctioned only three in all our years of auctioning and the last time was seven years ago! Note also that Universal hired famed illustrator Alberto Vargas to create an image of Marlene Dietrich for this movie. We have sold a special poster which has that art where it is signed by Vargas, and this poster has that same art, but there is no signature present. Note finally that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube.

Condition: good to very good. The poster has an extra horizontal fold near to the regular one with tiny creases and a few tiny bits of surface paper loss on the folds. It has some smudges and scuffs scattered throughout the poster (see our image).
