Description

If I Were King (Paramount, 1938). One Sheet (27" X 41").
Screenwriter Preston Sturges and director Frank Lloyd, of Mutiny on the Bounty fame, deliver one of cinema's best swashbuckling adventures in If I Were King. The fast paced action follows a rivalry between man-of-the-people Ronald Colman and King Louis XI (Basil Rathbone), in an Academy Award nominated performance. Colman is allowed to run the King's army for a week to break a siege, his only distraction from his duties being the lovely Frances Dee. A first time offer by Heritage, this one sheet is filled with glorious images of the dashing Colman and presents beautifully. Only light signs of handling are present, such as pinholes in the corners, left edge wear, small cross fold separation, and extra vertical folds. Very Fine-.
