An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More)

Hi, Nellie!, the 1934 Mervyn LeRoy newspaper journalism editor crime embezzlement comedy ("Paul Muni, America's greatest dramatic star in a characterization you'll love"; about a newspaper editor who helps a friend who is accused of embezzlement from a bank by not accusing him in the newspaper stories, and that causes the editor to be demoted to writing the 'Nellie Nelson' lonely hearts column, but to his surprise, he finds he likes the work, and he makes it very successful, but in the end, he finds the true embezzler and regains his position!) starring Paul Muni, Glenda Farrell, Ned Sparks, Robert Barrat, George Meeker, and Berton Churchill

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare poster. We have never auctioned one in all our years of auctioning and we have only auctioned one lobby card and a few small items for this title, but no other posters! Note also that this poster has never been machine folded! Some pre-1970 half-sheet posters were machine folded twice horizontally at the poster exchange, while some were not. It can be difficult to find an unfolded example of many pre-1970 half-sheet posters (note that most post-1970 half-sheets were NOT machine folded, so they are pretty much only found unfolded, and therefore this does not apply to those half-sheets).

Condition: good to very good. The poster was never folded. It has a few small patches of slight discoloration at lower center and those have some spotty, light surface paper loss and there are some areas of light surface paper loss to the lower right and left of the image area (see our image). It has a few tiny dot stains at upper right over the title. Otherwise, the poster is in pretty nice condition and it is "all there" and after paperbacking with some restoration the ultra-rare poster will look great!
