Note that W.C. Fields starred in a chapter from this compilation film, but it was cut before the movie was released. As far as we know, Fields is not credited or shown on any movie paper for this film. The cut chapter was restored in a 1996 video re-release NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.

We have only auctioned two in all our years of auctioning and the last time was a decade ago! Note also that this insert not only has images of the ten top stars in this all-star movie in the top half of the poster, but it also has a really cool title treatment where the letters of the title are on the top of the skyscrapers in New York City! 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: fair to good. The poster has complete separation of the lower horizontal fold and substantial separation in the other two folds and all have been repaired with tape from the back. It has a 1" tear at upper right and a few small tears along portions of the blank borders and most are repaired with tape from the back (especially at upper right which is mostly backed with masking tape.) Certainly the poster could be restored and paperbacked and it would look great, but please bear in mind its defects and cost of restoration before placing a bid. Learn More about condition grades
