All three daybills great. By far the rarest of the three is the Woman On Pier 13. It is the only daybill of this title I have seen. I have sighted one only Australian one sheet of this film also and I prefer the artwork and colours of the daybill over the one sheet which was produced by my least liked printer F. Cunninghame. On saying that I am sure we would all like to own either.
Tops, Sven! It's got great color, wonderful portraits, creative fonts, some fancy musical notes drifting down the bottom half...and some legs for Charlie!
Starring a rather cute Alma Rubens, who, according to Wiki:
"Rubens developed a drug addiction which eventually ended her career. She died of lobar pneumonia and bronchitis shortly after being arrested for cocaine possession in early January 1931."
Rick Peter Pan has amazing colors..classic! Well done! Nice close up of grace and carey on the lobby.
Thought that was right up your alley David. Nice one for your wall or finch lane! Sad story about Alma, guess hollywood has always been hard to deal with for some.
Comments
Thanks for the comments ... all came from a local auction
Woman on Pier 13 daybill (1949) also previously titled I Married a Communist
Let's Dance daybill (1950)
Wagon Master daybill (1950)
Been eyeing off that Wagon Master myself, but never could quit pull the trigger.
Congratulations on some beautiful posters!
Wagon Master has been available in New Zealand for purchase over the last twelve months.
A new daybill, and the lobby card is original from 55 but with a 1963 stamp. I gather it was recycled for a re-release.

Edited by David 'cause Rick still can't work how to post images...
What's to worry about? Beside, if they really worry you then think AdBlock.

Fine Clothes (1925) Long Daybill
Starring a rather cute Alma Rubens, who, according to Wiki:
"Rubens developed a drug addiction which eventually ended her career. She died of lobar pneumonia and bronchitis shortly after being arrested for cocaine possession in early January 1931."
Nice original daybill Sven. Very rare and the only one I have ever seen. The re-release stock poster has been readily available over the years.
Thought that was right up your alley David. Nice one for your wall or finch lane! Sad story about Alma, guess hollywood has always been hard to deal with for some.
Cheers hondo and mark!
Awesome poster, great catch Sven.
Was eyeing that Peter Pan, good win there Rick.
Great shape for a 20s daybill Dave!
