An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (measures 27" x 41") (Learn More) Light Fingers, the 1929 Joseph Henabery family relationship romantic jewel thief robbery crime thriller (about a famous jewel thief called "Light Fingers", who tries to rob the jewels of a rich family, but after he does, he falls in love with their beautiful daughter, and he secretly puts back the jewels, only to get arrested while he is doing so!) starring Ian Keith (in the title role as Light Fingers), Dorothy Revier, Carroll Nye, Ralph Theodore, Tom Ricketts, and Charles Gerrard NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: very good. This poster was linenbacked, and one of the following is true: either the poster had minor defects, and was well backed, OR it had more significant defects, but they were extremely well restored, OR it had some very minor defects that were not completely restored, and are somewhat noticeable. You can tell which of the above is the case for this particular poster by reading our "pre-restoration" description and also by looking at our "super-sized" image of the actual poster (we are the only major auction company we know of that gives accurate detailed pre-restoration information about linenbacked posters to our bidders, but we wish everyone did!). Note that we gave this condition grade to a very few posters that were in pretty good condition prior to linenbacking, but which were not all that well linenbacked, and which could be fairly easily re-backed with only minor additional restoration. The poster had minor creases along the foldlines and a few faint smudges in the image background. Overall, the poster was in very good to fine condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was linenbacked years ago on a thin linen with no excess border, and due to rough handling over the years, there has been some creases and tiny tears in the blank borders. Any talented restorer could re-back the poster on to a better quality linen, and at the same time mend the minor defects in the blank borders. Learn More about condition grades
