AT THE CIRCUS

One Sheet (27" x 41"); Style D
Very Fine- on Linen; Artwork by Al Hirschfeld
MGM, 1939

Many celebrate the artwork of renowned caricaturist Hirschfeld, known for his numerous illustrations of the Brothers spanning decades. This style D one sheet is often regarded as his finest work portraying the whimsical trio.

The beautiful poster has undergone professional restoration to address fold wear and separation, pinholes, and several chips at the borders and crossfolds. Small tears have been repaired, including a tear that ran from the lower border into the grass area of the image. Some faint stains remain visible.

Following the immense success of "A Night at the Opera" and "A Day at the Races," the Marx Brothers return in another MGM Studios film, brimming with wit and abundant gags. Featuring some of the most humorous dialogue from their MGM era, the Brothers turn the tale of a struggling circus owner into an absolute joy.
