Description

The Cheat (Paramount, 1931). Window Card (14" X 22").
This Depression-era melodrama, chock full of gambling, infidelity, and murder, stars a young Tallulah Bankhead as an out-of-control housewife whose gaming debts get her into deeper and deeper trouble. This is one of two copies known of this window card and cards for any of Bankhead's other Paramount titles are impossible to find as far as we know. The card has undergone restoration to fill multiple holes in the field and enhance the colors. Very Good on Cardstock.
