Full bleed Jazz Singer from HA

It would appear not to be a true full bleed. Heritage mention this poster was restored on linen and trimmed to the border.

I went back to the HA listing, it says "The linen has been trimmed to the border." So the linen was trimmed, not the poster....at least that is how I read it

Hmm, that's weird because the printer detail is in the artwork area

At present from evidence acquired, 1932 is so far the earliest year that Simmons printed an RKO full bleed daybill.

I had always thought that Simmons were alone in the 1930's. 1940's and the 1950's in producing full bleed daybills, but the 1931 Marchant Bachelor Apartment daybill image now proves otherwise. Simmons only followed Marchant in introducing this style. of poster presentation.

It is a pity that we don't have any other RKO daybill images that were printed from 1930 to 1932. This would then establish more information on which printers produced the RKO product during this period of time, and in which poster presentation style.

I have some more information on FBO silent films that RKO released, that would have had to have been only a small number of Australian screening venues up to at least 1932. This was well and truly into the sound period. Let me know if anyone would be interested in hearing about this particular information?

The only other RKO I have is The Lost Squadron, but again from '32

The very common Australian yellow daybill design, and a rarer green version that was designed with very slight differences to what were printed on the yellow version.
