REUNION (1936) 15205

REUNION U.S. 20th Century Fox Three Sheet. Unbacked. Fine Plus.

When the famous Dionne quintuplets were born in Canada in 1934, they became the subject of great curiosity. This was many years before fertility clinics made multiple birth pregancies all that common. The five baby girls were the subject of much interest and Twentieth Century Fox exploited that interest by making THE COUNTRY DOCTOR in 1936 and quickly following it with REUNION (1936). In both films actor Jean Hersholt played the physician who delivered the babies Dr. John Luke. Hersholt, whose name is remembered on The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences humanitarian award, plays the avuncular doctor with charm and wit. The cast is large and pretty Rochelle Hudson is second billed. This is a beautiful old Fox stone lithograph which has never been linen backed. This three sheet is actually printed on three separate sheets. Condition is fine plus. Ask us about linen backing and poster conservation services.
