Vintage Theater Herald or Handbill (9x4) Fine Plus Condition
Vintage, original theater herald or handbill (9x4). This little newsprint handbill or herald is typical of these small announcement that were handed out be the thousands during the 20s, 30s, 40s, and even into the 1950s in some places to theater patrons. The point was to notify the theater-goers of upcoming attractions. This one promotes a future showing of THE LITTLE MINSTER (1934) starring Katherine Hepburn. Adding some charm to the handbill is a promotion of the theater's "Buck Night", obviously a cash door prize. These cash incentive were a litle like bingo, a little gambling to sweeten the movie experience. MovieArt Austin guarantees that his herald is an authentic herald from 1934. It was given to patrons of the Palace Theater is Hico, Texas. MovieArt will sell no reproductions.
