Description

White Woman (Paramount, 1933). Full Bleed One Sheet (26.5" X 39.75"). Style A.
Screen luminary Carole Lombard started in pictures at a young age in the early 1920s, working at Fox, Pathe, and later finding a home at Paramount in 1930. The stunning poster offered here is from this early time at Paramount, when she was just gaining attention for her successes in comedies and dramas. In this pre-Code, racy melodrama, Lombard plays a desperate singer who is saved from deportation by marriage to Malaysian plantation owner Charles Laughton. By the time she finds out that he is a brutal tyrant, it is too late and her only salvation is the plantation overseer, with whom she falls in love, leading to dire consequences. On this rare and dramatic one sheet, Lombard's classic blonde beauty is rendered to perfection along with co-stars Laughton and Kent Taylor. This is the first time we have ever seen this full-bleed one sheet and the only one we are aware of; a sensational item for eager collectors. It had only a pinhole in each corner, which have been professionally restored. Very Fine on Linen.
