An Original Vintage Theatrical Window Card Movie Poster (WC; measures 14" x 22") (Learn More) The Caveman (or "The Cave Man"), the 1926 Lewis Milestone silent romantic comedy ("Scenario by Darryl Francis Zanuck"; "Story by Gilette Burgess"; about rich society girl who picks up a tough cold delivery man and takes him to a fancy party, and she tells people he is a "nutty professor", so they should disregard what he says, and she of course ends up falling in love with him in spite of their being complete opposites; "Cave Man" was a slang term in the 1920s for a roughneck, and more specifically, a man who was rough with women, but they tolerated it) starring Matt Moore, Marie Prevost, John Patrick, Myrna Loy, Phyllis Haver, and Hedda Hopper 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 the poster artist for this window card showed a great image of Matt Moore with Marie Prevost slung over his shoulders, and also an image of an actual caveman holding a half-naked cavewoman, with a club in his other hand! Also note that this poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (except somewhat heavier). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards, and lobby cards. Condition: very good. 2" of the blank top had been trimmed off. There were pinholes, smudges, scuffs, creases, and tears around the edges of the card with a much lesser amount within the image. An expert restorer replaced the top blank area that was missing and did excellent restoration to the above defects and the card displays well and does not have a "restored look"!
