Description

Bringing Up Baby (RKO, 1938). Insert (14" X 36").
Considered by many to be one of the best of the screwball comedies, this film, with its frantic pace, absurd antics, and zany pratfalls was director Howard Hawks at his finest. This was the second of four films co-starring Katharine Hepburn and Cary Grant, the others being Holiday, The Philadelphia Story, and Sylvia Scarlett. Original posters for this classic comedy have always been hard to come by, since surprisingly, it was not a hit when first released in 1938. This extremely rare insert (a Heritage first) has had touchup applied to the folds, two pinholes in the background, the borders, and a slight bit of color enhancement was performed. Rolled, Fine/Very Fine.
