We Went to College (MGM, 1936). One Sheet (27  X 41 )
We Went to College (MGM, 1936). One Sheet (27" X 41"). Though this film about a college reunion, missed chances and mistaken advances, is rather routine, the poster is not. Famed roaring twenties artist John Held, Jr (1889-1958) was the artist for this piece. Held, famous for doing commercial art for Life, Liberty, and the New Yorker magazines, was hired away to Hollywood by MGM's Art Director Hal Burrows. Held did posters for "Battling Butler", "So this is College" and "The Boy Friend" and his work is considered synonymous with the "Jazz Age". Very Fine+ on Linen. Important notice: Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 200-250 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 20% Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid.
