Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this cool standee, which was definitely issued by the studio (it has small text in the bottom giving Paramount information)! Standees from 1930s classic Hollywood movies are beyond rare, because they were normally broken up and thrown out after they were used one time, because it didn't pay to re-transport them. This is one of the only standees from any classic 1930s movies we have ever auctioned! Because the poster was created on a heavy board, it will need to be shipped in a very large flat package that measures approximately 22" x 38", so incorporate that cost of shipping into your bidding. Condition: good to very good. The original easel backing is no longer present. There are some smudges, faint stains, and scuffs scattered in the standee, more so in the bottom solid black area. There are smudges in the letters of "BEAU" at top center. This incredibly rare standee can certainly be displayed as it is, or one might choose to have any degree of restoration performed.
