Description
Min and Bill (MGM, 1930). One Sheet (27" X 41").Marie Dressler would win the Best Actress Academy Award in this, director George Hill's adaptation of the Lorna Moon novel, :"Dark Star." The tender comedy-drama is the story of a dockside innkeeper, Min (Dressler) who raises as her own child the daughter of a barroom tramp, with the help of her friend Bill (Wallace Beery). The film was a boxoffice smash, spawned a sequel and boosted both stars to superstar status. This fabulous original poster sports wonderful artwork by the great Al Hirschfeld and this is the first time we have ever offered this rare piece. The poster is in wonderful, unrestored condition with pinholes in the corners, slight crossfold separation and a tear in the upper right corner. Get this while you can as we have never seen another copy. Very Fine.
