High School Hellcats (AIP, 1958). One Sheet (27" X 41"). "What must a good girl say to belong?" We don't care just as long as Yvonne Lime says it! Lime was the undisputed queen of the juvenile delinquent drive-in circuit, making a string of low budget teenage classics. The AIP gang tried to do an expose of teenage girl gangs with this juvy pic. Of course it all goes bad and ends up in a knife fight at the local bijou! Low production values didn't matter to the theatre managers, just the titillating posters that lured the teenage drive-in crowd in for the nightly shows. It doesn't get much better than this! This poster is tri-folded and has two light creases and some insignificant border imperfections. Posters for this title continue to be in demand among collectors, especially in this stellar, unrestored condition. Very Fine/Near Mint.

Boys Town (MGM, 1938) Half Sheet (22" X 28"). This inspiring story, based on the real Boys Town created by Father Flannagan, found Spencer Tracy in the lead role as he tries to turn troubled youths into men. Of course, MGM needed a troubled youth for Tracy to help so they cast Mickey Rooney in the part. Tracy could only do so much. Hey, it's a classic and Spencer Tracy went on to win the Oscar for Best Actor. Posters on this title don't turn up too often. This half sheet was paper backed to flatten the fold lines and several wrinkles throughout the poster. It also had a small chip in the right border and a two-inch tear in the left border repaired. Very Fine- on Paper.

The Wedding March (Paramount, 1928) Pressbook (Multiple Pages). Erich von Stroheim (The Man You Love to Hate) stars in this tale of Austrian office told to marry for money. When he falls in love with a peasant girl, he agrees to marry her, but is forced to marry another in a pre-arranged marriage. Von Stroheim was legendary in Hollywood for making epic productions that went way over schedule and budget. He shot for nine months on The Wedding March and had so much footage, the studio demanded he turn the additional footage into a sequel. The pressbook has twenty-two pages and the interior pages are very tannic and brittle as they were printed on newsprint. The pressbook has many tiny chips, creases and tears and shows signs of being folded in half at one time. There is an interior four-page section printed in rotogravure that features key scenes from the film. There are several places where references to women being Von Stroheim's "playthings" have been lined out. Overall condition is Good to Very Good.
