An Original Vintage Theatrical Jumbo Window Card Movie Poster (WC; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More) Slaves in Bondage, the 1937 Elmer Clifton bad girl prostitution sexploitation crime thriller ("Will social justice triumph?"; "Society Beauties by Day! Party Girls by Night!"; "See for the first time Uncensored Secrets of the Nation's Sinister Vice Scandals"; "Girls ensnared into lives of shame!"; "Tricked into Lives of Shame!

Note that this movie was naturally incredibly popular in small towns across America at this time, and in the next few years. Clever promoters would take it into a small town or city and show it for a single weekend (sometimes late night or midnight shows), and they would plaster the town with one-sheets or window cards announcing the event. It is very difficult to note which posters are from the very first release in 1937, and which ones are from the roadshow releases in the years afterwards. 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, as noted above, it is very difficult to accurately date posters from this movie, because it has a roadshow release for years after its original one. But because this window card has Monday, March 14 at the top, we know that it is from 1938, because the next time that occurred was not until 1949, and it is not from that year! Note that this item needs to be shipped in an oversized flat package. Some of these items can ONLY be sent in flat packages, and could not possibly be rolled into a tube. On some of them (for example f it is a size that might ordinarily be rolled in a tube, like a half-sheet), the reason it is in this auction is specifically because we feel it either CAN'T be rolled or because we feel it would be a mistake to roll it, because it might well damage the item. In the case of the few items that could be rolled, we will roll the item in a tube if the new owner insists, but only if they accept that they can't return the item if it is damaged from being rolled. So please bear in mind that this item must be sent in a LARGE flat package (the size of the package will depend on the size of the item), and bear this added expense in mind before placing a bid on it. Condition: poor to fair. There is much staining in the bottom left of the image and staining scattered throughout the poster (see our image). Obviously, this poster can be restored, but bear in mind its condition and the cost of restoration before placing a bid. Learn More about condition grades
