An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Insert Movie Poster (measures 14" x 36" [36 x 91 cm]) (Learn More) The Flame of New Orleans, the 1941 Rene Clair Louisiana romantic love triangle comedy (about a beautiful cabaret singer who can't choose between a rich banker and a dashing sea captain) starring Marlene Dietrich, Bruce Cabot, Roland Young, Mischa Auer, Andy Devine, Melville Cooper, Eddie Quillan, Laura Hope Crews, Frank Jenks, Theresa Harris, Clarence Muse, and Shemp Howard (in an uncredited role as an "Oyster Bed Cafe Waiter"!) NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Alberto Vargas Important Added Info: Note that Universal hired famed illustrator Alberto Vargas to create an image of Marlene Dietrich for this movie. We have sold a special poster which has that art where it is signed by Vargas, and this poster has that same art, but there is no signature present. Note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: good. The poster has many creases and scuffs in the 3" above and below the top foldline, and a partial crease 3" below the bottom foldline. It had a tiny bit of surface paper loss in the "M" of "FLAME" in the title. It has fine surface paper loss in parts of the top and bottom foldlines, and the right 4" of the bottom foldline was separated, and someone put conservation tape on the back of that area. The above defects are definitely noticeable and distracting. If I owned this cool poster, I would surely have a talented restorer do restoration to it (either gel backing it or paperbacking it). After proper restoration, it will look fantastic! Learn More about condition grades
