About the Item

Original American movie poster for the 1936 exploitation film. This is a very rare poster only a few are known to have survived. This 1936 exploitation film was directed by Dwain Esper, and written by Esper's wife, Hildagarde Stadie. The message that the film was trying to convey was that the possibility of smoking marijuana could eventually lead to becoming addicted to heroin. Although the film had cult status when it was released, it became more popular on college campuses in the 1960s. The size given is before framing the framed size is 34 x 26 1/4 in. (86.4 x 66.7 cm) The poster is in very good condition, with the colours remaining very bright there is restoration to some tears in the top panel, which does not affect the main artwork. There are some other small surface abrasions, and restoration to the bottom right-hand corner of the poster, together with some small areas of ageing in the title. The poster is conservation framed with UV plexiglass and would be shipped boxed by Federal Express.
