Description

Doughboys (MGM, 1930). Half Sheet (22" X 28").
Comedic genius Buster Keaton made the transition to talking pictures in 1930 with Free and Easy, and soon followed with this film, which has Keaton playing a wealthy scion who accidentally signs up for duty during World War I. Based partly on Keaton's own stint in France during the Great War, and filled with iconic scenes of him marching to the beat of his own drum, this is one of Keaton's best films for MGM. Popular leading lady Sally Eilers co-stars as his love interest. This beautifully restored half sheet had three tears at the top that extended into the image area, small tears in the bottom border, and two small tack holes in the image. These issues are no longer evident, and this sensational, rare poster features four images of the comedic legend. Fine+ on Paper.
