  • Condition: This original, restored, 1934 movie poster exhibits incredible colors and superb details on a larger sized linen-backed quality piece of art. Restoration efforts have removed virtually all previous flaws. The poster was previously in 3 sections and Folded. It is now rolled and in one piece. The previous Fold lines and section breaks are still visible, but barely. The deep rich colors of the poster diminish these old Fold lines. There is a stray light black line (1") at the top left in the first "L" in "COLLEEN". There are sporadic, tiny black spots/marks in the middle of the poster in the yellow background section, which apparently are "rub-offs" of the black lettering of the title "THE SCARLET LETTR". These spots are not obtrusive. And there is a tiny white spot (1/16") at the top right of the poster. There are no pin holes, no tears, and no tape or tape residue. There is no soiling or smudges and no loss of paper or color. Breathtaking! Please review the photos carefully.

    Description

    This is the Original (1sh) movie poster
    THE SCARLET LETTER.
    It was used by
    Majestic
    to promote this movie when it was released in 1934.   It is not a reprint nor a reproduction.   The movie stars Colleen Moore, Hardie Albright, Henry B. Walthall, Cora Sue Collins, Alan Hale, Virginia Howell, William T. Kent, and William Farnum.  It was directed by Robert G. Vignola.
    This restored movie poster is Rolled and measures 41" x 79", normally called a Three Sheet.
    This poster is also linen backed.
    Add 1" all around the 41" x 79" poster size to account for the addition of the linen backing.  The primary area of restoration was at the previous Fold lines, which are now generally faint.  Also restored was some missing paper and some minor tears.
    This original movie poster is now graded C8.5, Very Fine to Near Mint.
    Original movie posters are graded as follows from the top down: C10 (Mint), C9 (Near Mint), C8 (Very Fine), C7 (Fine/Very Fine), C6 (Fine or Very Good), C5 (Good to Very Good), etc.  It is difficult to find any pre-1985 original movie posters graded C10 (Mint).  Original movie posters - by generally recognized standards - cannot receive a grade higher than C8.5 after restoration.
    Prior to restoration this poster was graded C7 Fine/Very Fine.
    We decided to have it restored since we had been unable to find many, or any,
    1934 THE SCARLET LETTER
    original movie posters in any type of acceptable condition for display.  Although the C7 unrestored poster could have been displayed, the restoration has now elevated this poster to it original grandeur.  The colors and images and detail are amazing.  I know that any fan of
    THE SCARLET LETTER
    , or any fan of vintage original movie posters, would be supremely pleased with the appearance of this poster.
    We have no doubt that
    THE SCARLET LETTER
    original movie poster, Three Sheet, has very good investment value.  The movie is an iconic film that has stood the test of time.  In our collecting and selling of original movie posters, we have rarely encountered, if at all, many originals of the
    1934 THE SCARLET LETTER
    . The poster will be a rare addition to any collection of original movie posters.
