Description

It Happened One Night (Columbia, 1934). Three Sheet (41" X 81") Style B. Two of the screen's leading stars, Clark Gable and Claudette Colbert, were cast in this story about a spoiled heiress, tired of her father's control, who rebels and runs away from both her father and her new husband. Gable stars as a hungry reporter, looking for a great story, who stumbles across the runaway heiress and accompanies her on her "road-trip" back to New York. Along the way, the two have some adventures and fall in love with each other. The film was a huge success for the fledgling Columbia Pictures, and was the first film to sweep the five major Oscars including Best Actor, Actress, Picture, Director, and Screenplay. This absolutely gorgeous stone litho poster has had some of the borders airbrushed and had some color touch to the fold lines, primarily in the blue background. Of all the posters and promotional material issued on this classic title, this only known three sheet may be the best image on the film. Very Fine- on Linen.
