Very Good Folded
Columbia, 1936

The poster has undergone restoration, correcting three folds and a tear that extended from the upper left border into Jean Arthur's hair. It also had wear along the borders and edges. The titles, the upper red field, and the lower credit area have all been airbrushed. The poster now presents very well.

Director Frank Capra created a new kind of American hero in this picture, one endowed with greatness bred from simple, down-home American values. The result was Capra's second Best Director Oscar (it was also nominated for Best Production, Best Actor [Cooper], Best Original Story, and Best Sound Design) and the biggest hit of Capra's career thus far.
