An Original Vintage Theatrical Paperbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (25 1/2" x 39 3/4") (Learn More) When My Baby Smiles at Me, the 1948 Walter Lang family relationship romantic musical ("From the play by George Manker Watters & Arthur Hopkins"; "Produced by George Jessel"; about a pair of burlesque vaudeville performers who achieve great success, but that ironically causes the husband to become a heavy drinker, which creates many problems) starring Betty Grable, Dan Dailey (nominated for the Best Actor Academy Award for this film), Jack Oakie, June Havoc, Richard Arlen, James Gleason, George Jessel, and Noel Neill 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, but not in the usual way (which is an alternate form of restoration that is similar to linenbacking, but involves backing the poster onto Japanese rice paper). THIS poster HAS been mounted onto Japanese rice paper, but it appears that it was done so in preparation to having the poster linenbacked, but that (for unknown reasons) the owner of this poster did not have the job finished, so the poster has solely been mounted on thin Japanese rice paper. However, unlike the other similar paperbacked posters we are selling this week, this particular poster DID have restoration performed after it was backed onto the paper, but oddly, the restorer did NOT replace the missing borders. Also, because the poster is currently mounted onto a thin rice paper, it is fragile, and of course, will need to be sent rolled in a tube (but the poster is somewhat protected by the extra 1" border of rice paper on all four sides). Please do not bid on this poster unless you have read the above carefully! Condition: fair. The poster was mounted on a thin Japanese rice paper . Prior to being paperbacked, the poster had all of its borders trimmed off, and there were many scattered areas of paper loss in the upper left half of the poster, including areas in the mouths of the large headshots of both stars, in the hair of the standing image of Grable and in the upper body of Grable. There were a few other scattered tears and areas of paper loss in the poster. After it was mounted, someone performed restoration to some of the poster's many defects (but they did not do the best job, and the restoration is noticeable, even from a distance). Please do not bid on this poster unless you have read the above carefully! Learn More about condition grades
