Description

Shadow of the Thin Man (MGM, 1941). One Sheet (27" X 41") Style D.
Nick and Nora Charles (William Powell and Myrna Loy) just can't seem to catch a break. Even a relaxing day at the race track turns into a murder investigation when a jockey, recently accused of throwing a race, is found shot to death. Based on characters created by famed hard-boiled novelist Dashiell Hammett, this was the fourth entry in this popular series. This lovely stone litho one sheet, with its beautiful portraits of both Powell and Loy, as well as Asta the dog and Dickie Hall, had pinholes in the corners, minor crossfold separations with small areas of paper loss, tearing in the upper right corner and above the centerfold, and a vertical crease that breaks color just to the left of center. Restoration has addressed some of these issues, making this a perfect choice for Nick and Nora fans everywhere. Fine on Linen.
