Description

La Cucaracha (RKO, 1934). Half Sheet (22" X 28"). Musical Short. Starring Steffi Duna and Don Alvarado. Directed by Lloyd Corrigan. Don't miss out on this exciting find. This is one of the cornerstone historical posters of the motion picture industry. It is rare enough just in itself; it's a half sheet for a 21 minute short subject film. But the interest lies in the fact that this was the first film to be shot 'entirely' in the three strip Technicolor process. And for you musical purists, this is one of the only poster appearances of Eduardo Durant's Rhumba Band. This film won Oscar for Best Short Subject - Comedy. There is older restoration for pinholes, vertical creases, corner chips and creases, and edge wear. Fine on Linen.
