An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Insert Movie Poster (measures 14" x 36" [36 x 91 cm]) (Learn More) The Great Man Votes, the 1939 Garson Kanin political screwball comedy ("Even 'Iron Hat' McCarty, toughest heeler in the Old 13th, had to kowtow to the man they'd been kicking around... when the town woke up to find his single ballot controlling the whole election."; "No man's a failure who's a hero to his kids! ..When shiftless old Vance gets that lesson in life... you'll glow and cheer through your tears and laughs and heart-throbs!"; about an alcoholic washed up man who, through a bizarre series of events, ends up with the deciding vote in an election, and both parties court him and gets a second chance at life) starring John Barrymore, Peter Holden, Virginia Weidler, Donald MacBride, and Katharine Alexander. Note that this was John Barrymore's last great performance, and it helped that he was a real life alcoholic washed up man playing an alcoholic washed up man on screen. Also note that the movie was basically remade in 2008 as "Swing Vote" with Kevin Costner in the lead role. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.

There are a few small tears around the edges and some separation in the ends of the folds and a few of those areas are backed by conservation tape. There is some wear along the folds, but the rare poster is otherwise in generally nice condition and it could be displayed, or after paperbacking with some restoration the poster will look great!
