Beggar's Holiday, the 1934 Sam Newfield romantic melodrama (about a girl who works as a "taxi dancer", which was a 10-cents-a-dance girl in a dance hall, and she meets a young man who wants to have a spree with her; unknown to her, he is out on bail for embezzling, and they agree to just have fun together, but when they fall deeply in love, he confesses to her and goes to jail for a year, knowing that she will be waiting for him when he gets out) starring Hardie Albright, J. Farrell MacDonald, Sally O'Neil, Barbara Barondess, George Grandee, and Louise Beavers. Note that "Beggar's Holiday" was the original working title of "Lady for a Day" made in 1933. When Frank Capra changed the title to "Lady for a Day", this studio grabbed that title and used it for this movie!

Important Added Info:

What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster had small paper loss at the bottom two crossfolds and tiny paper loss at the top crossfold. It had tears and small paper loss in the bottom two horizontal folds and in the vertical fold between those two folds, and very minor wear on the other foldlines. It had two small areas of paper loss in the right blank border. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The restorer backed the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did not do restoration to the defects described above.
