I have a question regarding paper (larger than lobby cards) on the classic
Cagney 1930's larceny/crime type Warner Brothers pictures, including the
following:
Smart Money
Blonde Crazy
Taxi!
Hard To Handle
Picture Snatcher
Lady Killer
Jimmy the Gent
Paper from these films seems to be quite scarce.
I have not seen any record of paper from these films selling at auction,
other than a One Sheet from Hard to Handle in 1997 at Christie', and a Jimmy
the Gent one sheet in 1995 at Christie's.
I was wondering if anyone on MOPO has any insight as to how scarce these
posters are? Are a lot of these posters 'only known copies'? Do they sit in
one elite Cagney collection? Do any of you hold any paper from these titles?
Also, are there half sheet and/or insert posters on these titles? Did Warner
Bros even release posters in these sizes for these films?
Paper from any of these films are at the top of my want list and I would
like to know who holds it. Please PM if you have one that is one day up for
an offer.
