An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More) Pardon My Sarong, the 1942 Erle C. Kenton South Seas tropical island romantic screwball comedy (about a pair of bus drivers who manage to steal their own bus, drive it into the ocean, and get involved with a rich playboy on his way to a tropical island, and also sinister jewel thieves) starring Bud Abbott, Lou Costello (Abbott and Costello), Virginia Bruce, Robert Paige, Leif Erickson, Lionel Atwill, Nan Wynn, Samuel S. Hinds, "Tip, Tap, and Toe Dancers", The Saronga Dancing Girls, "Those Sensational Harmony Hits" The Four Ink Spots, Marie McDonald (10th in the credits, and unbilled, though she would soon become famous as Marie "The Body" McDonald!), William Demarest, and Sig Arno 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 is an extremely rare poster. We have never auctioned this version (with a close-up of Bud and Lou with sexy ladies) in all our years of auctioning (and the last half-sheet we auctioned with the other style was in 2014 and sold for $1,001!). Note also that this poster has never been machine folded! Some pre-1970 half-sheet posters were machine folded twice horizontally at the poster exchange, while some were not. It can be difficult to find an unfolded example of many pre-1970 half-sheet posters (note that most post-1970 half-sheets were NOT machine folded, so they are pretty much only found unfolded, and therefore this does not apply to those half-sheets). Condition: fair to good. The poster is in lesser condition. It has darkened and faded and there is slight discoloration scattered in several areas, with more noticeable discoloration around the edges. It has creases, defects, areas of paper loss and tears of varying lengths along parts of some edges and many of those tears are repaired with different pieces of tape from the back. Please see our super-sized image to get a good sense of the condition of this item prior to placing a bid and please do not bid unless you can accept the defects described above.
