An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked French Two-Panel "Double Grande" Movie Poster (2p; measures 63" x 93" [160 x 236 cm]; printed in 2 pieces) (Learn More) Great Guy (released in England as "Pluck of the Irish"), the 1936 John G. Blystone crime thriller ("It's tops in Cagney entertainment"; "James Cagney at his best!"; "From the Johnny Cave Stories in the Saturday Evening Post by James Edward Grant"; about the "New York Department of Weights and Measures", which was in charge of making sure the public didn't get cheated on the weight of goods; Cagney is the brash new head of it, who gets the job after the old head is hospitalized for not "playing ball"; Cagney takes on everyone: the crooks who cheat the public, and the crooked politicians who take bribes to let them do it!) starring James Cagney, Mae Clarke, James Burke, Edward Brophy, and Henry Kolker. Of course, this movie reunited James Cagney with Mae Clarke, the actress that had hit in the face with a grapefruit in Public Enemy! Perhaps this was his way of apologizing to her, by co-starring with 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 this French two-panel measures 63" x 93" [160 x 236 cm]. What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had small paper loss at some crossfolds and some creases, tears, and tiny paper loss on parts of some foldlines, and many faint scuffs scattered throughout. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well! At some point after it was backed, it was roughly handled, and there is now a faint slightly diagonal crease in the left of the top border. It runs down through the left of the "C" of "CAGNEY" and down into the orange background beneath it. The crease is both in the poster and in the linen, but it is fairly minor (see our image).
