* * * *THE #1 GREATEST MGM MOVIE POSTER!
Mrs.Miniver eBay is proud to offer one of the rarest and best posters ever made representing Hollywood’s GOLDEN era. Offered here is an original Pre-Code Early 1930's poster issued to advertise Hollywood's preeminent movie Studio: Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. What an amazing item! This 1-of-a-kind poster was issued directly by MGM back in the early 1930's to advertise the glory that is MGM; "More Stars than in the heavens." It's hard to pin down an exact date for this poster. I'm sure a savvy MGM aficionado could probably nail it down to the exact year based on the photos chosen, but I've determined (by simple deduction) that it has to be pre-1935 based on the fact that the Marx Brothers are not shown on the poster. Happily, the poster does show the entire MGM lineup of early legends, including an amazing image of their biggest star - Leo the MGM Lion – who adorned the head of every MGM picture released by the studio. Greta Garbo, Jean Harlow, Clark Gable, Joan Crawford, Laurel and Hardy, John Barrymore, Jeanette MacDonald, Wallace Beery, Jackie Cooper, Marie Dressler, and a good number of the other early 1930’s contract players are shown in plenty all over this remarkable piece.
You’re not going to find a better poster representing Hollywood’s finest hour. You’re not going to find a rarer one either –
AS THIS IS THE ONLY ORIGINAL KNOWN TO HAVE SURVIVED!!
This amazing special 31 and ¾ inch by 47 and ¼ inch poster is in
AMAZING NearMINT/MINT CONDITION
!
The poster has no holes or chips out of it. It was museum linen-mounted by a top conservator and has been stored flat between acid free paper to preserve this top-notch beauty. It’s as clean as it gets and is one of the best condition 1930’s posters we’ve ever seen.
Make this the cornerstone of your Hollywood collection. A better centerpiece to a comprehensive collection would be hard to find!
LINEN-MOUNTING
is an accepted form of poster preservation by the Library of Congress and every Museum in the country. Except for one or two,
every one of the top twenty
0,000.00 and up most expensive selling movie posters
were all linen or paper-mounted
. A lot of advanced poster buyers request and prefer linen-mounted posters because it makes framing and displaying the posters much easier
-
without the risk of damaging the original. The white you see in the photo
-
beyond that of the poster
- is the white of the Japanese paper lining the linen border margin. You can see how easy it would be to damage the original poster without that extra margin of protection. The backing makes the poster much safer to handle - it GREATLY reduces the risk of damaging the original. Also, all of my linen-backed posters have been stored FLAT so they
DO NOT have a curl to them
- They're all ready for framing and display!
Buying this poster is ECONOMY PROOF!
Why waste your money in the stock market? It can crash regardless of any decision you make and can even crash regardless of any decision made by the company related to the stock - Leaving you with a near worthless piece of paper that won't inspire anyone! With the purchase of an historic document such as this MGM treasure, it doesn't matter what happens to the economy, you'll still have the poster, which can be displayed and enjoyed. The magnificence of art and historic documents have an inherent value that relates to civilization and society. Unless civilization itself crashes then this piece will hold its value, and, if civilization itself crashes - Who'll care about money? This poster is definitely
ECONOMY PROOF!
