Date Sold 12/26/2021Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Linenbacked One-Sheet Poster (1sh; measures 26" x 40 1/4" [66 x 102 cm]) (Learn More) Paramount Week, the 1925 poster ("8th Annual Paramount Week") advertising a Paramount Studios promotion from September 6th to the 12th. Note that many theaters at this time only showed the product of one or two studios, so the studios would offer these kinds of incentives to the theaters to try to get them to book only their product during a single week. Note that this was the "eighth annual" such event, indicating it began in 1918, and we know that it continued through 1939 at least (we have seen ones from several different events, including the first one, the one from 1939, and several from in between those dates)! If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have auctioned several different "Paramount Week" one-sheets from other years, but we have never before auctioned THIS one! Also note that this one-sheet measures 26" x 40 1/4" [66 x 102 cm], but it has not been trimmed. What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had fine surface paper loss on parts of some folds, with a few stains and pinholes in parts of the blank borders. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects. Note that either the restorer who mounted the poster did not leave any excess linen around the edges of the poster, or possibly the owner of the poster chose to carefully trim off the excess, so that the poster would fit in a frame.
