Description

Pardon Us (MGM, 1931). One Sheet (27" X 41"). Laurel and Hardy's first feature-length film is not particularly P.C. (the boys appear in blackface at one point), but it's fondly-remembered all the same. L&H play beer barons who get thrown into the pokey and then escape to a cotton plantation. This nifty stone litho one sheet has artwork by the legendary Al Hirschfeld that is unmistakable. This poster has had restoration, with several small holes in the center and a 3" tear in the prison bars. There is a 7" tear at the top with some slight paper loss, pieces missing in the top left corner, fold wear and pinholes, and some paint in the background. Still, you can't beat this fantastic image of Stan and Ollie, one of the classic comedy teams. Very Good on Linen.
