An Original Vintage Theatrical Window Card Movie Poster (WC; measures 14" x 22") (Learn More) The Personality Kid, the 1934 Alan Crosland boxing sports melodrama ("GIRLS - Do you think you could manage this man?"; "Based on 'Chinese Lights' by Gene Towne and C. Graham Baker"; decades before Muhammad Ali was born, the star of this movie was an arrogant Irish boxer who was supremely boastful and would dance a jig every time he scored a knockout, but he discovers that his wife and manager has been rigging all his fights!) starring Pat O'Brien, Glenda Farrell, Claire Dodd, Robert Gleckler, Henry O'Neill, and Clarence Muse 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 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: good to very good. The poster had pinholes, creases, tears, and some areas of paper loss around the edges of the poster and some creases, smudges, scuffs, and a few pinholes scattered throughout the image. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was well backed by a talented restorer, who did not touch up all of the faint smudges and scuffs (but the restorer did paint over much of the solid white background areas). Obviously, one would prefer to find an example of this window card that had no defects or restoration, but I do not know if another example of this card exists (or if it does, if the owner would consider parting with it!). This card has had expert restoration and displays nicely, but you have a sense that there was paint restoration in the blank background areas. Learn More about condition grades
