Description

The Wild Party (Paramount, 1929). Fine+ on Cardstock. Window Card (14" X 22").
Dorothy Arzner directed Clara Bow (Stella Ames) as an irrepressible and carefree party girl of the 20s, falling for college professor Fredric March (James Gilmore) who is initially unimpressed by her but eventually finds her worthy of his respect when she protects a classmate and takes the blame. Though Bow was petrified by the boom microphone in this, her first talkie, and she was uncommonly paired with a leading man of consequence in Fredric March in his proper film debut. Their chemistry is undeniable. This stunning window card was professionally paperbacked and had touchup to crease, to the 'O' in 'Bow", a scuff within Bow's hands, shoulder and left arm, a tear to the lower right and bottom edge, and the background was airbrushed. There is scattered cracking to the lower right from airbrushing.
