My Favorite Wife (RKO, 1940)...

Description

My Favorite Wife (RKO, 1940) Insert (14" X 36"). Irene Dunne and Cary Grant star in this comedy about a woman who was ship-wrecked for seven years, is rescued and returns home on the same day her husband marries another woman. Of course more complications arise when it turns out the original wife was ship-wrecked with another man for those seven years. Cary Grant was perfect in these kinds of screwball comedies and this film has been a favorite among collectors for years. The insert has three horizontal folds and shows smudging, and lights tears and "dings" in the borders. There is also some minor residual paper stuck to a few spots on the borders. All of these defects would easily clean-up with minimal professional restoration making this a rare Grant piece to own. Fine.
