An Original Vintage Movie Trade Ad (measures 9 1/4" x 12 1/4" [23 x 31 cm]; 4 pages) (Learn More) Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (better known as MGM) is an American media company, involved primarily in the production and distribution of films and television programs. MGM was founded in 1924 when Marcus Loew bought Metro Pictures, Goldwyn Pictures Corporation, and Louis B. Mayer Pictures. Important Added Info: Note that this was a special 3-page ad in Box Office magazine on June 9, 1969, for these four great movies that MGM was releasing, to start "a summer hit wave". From the 1920s on, studios would create elaborate trade ads, often in full color, and often using the finest artists of the day. They would run these ads in their studio yearbooks and exhibitor magazines, and they would also print those trade ads separately and mail them individually to theater owners, trying to get them to book that specific movie. Sometimes those books and magazines are separated and the ads, which now greatly resemble the individually printed trade ads, are sold individually. The trade ad offered here was removed from a yearbook or magazine. It can be framed and displayed (but many trade ads have different images on each side, so one must choose which side to display if it is framed!). Condition: good. Learn More about condition grades
