lzcutter Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 *Kyle, you gave me quite a scare earlier today. The poster for Juke Girl looks awesome, but it might be a day early.* The movie plays overnight (3:00 am our time here on the west coast) so if he had posted the poster tomorrow morning, the movie would have already aired.

hlywdkjk Posted March 5, 2009 Author Share Posted March 5, 2009 *"...if he had posted the poster tomorrow morning, the movie would have already aired."* - lzcutter True. But mostly, given the choice between *Juke Girl* or one of these... ...*Juke Girl* won hands down. Kyle In Hollywood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no question the *Juke Girl* poster was the best of the bunch. And that new *Marius* poster is breathtakingly beautiful. You've got great taste for picking just the right poster!

JackFavell Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Kyle- Gorgeous, gorgeous artwork for the Marius premiere! And I love the "Good girl........ to stay away from" poster. Ann Sheridan couldn't be more enticing..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hlywdkjk Posted March 7, 2009 Author Share Posted March 7, 2009 Hi 'visualfeast' - Actually I think these characitures of the Marx Bros. are the product of Al Hirschfeld (who worked at MGM in the 30s) and variations of these images were used in many of the ads for their films (Domestic and Euopean). I will see if I can find some other examples. Kyle In Hollywood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hlywdkjk Posted March 7, 2009 Author Share Posted March 7, 2009 Other Hirschfeld attributed Marx Bros Posters or artwork (repost from Dec 2007) *A Day At The Races* Belguim (repost from 2007) A second *A Night At The Opera* Belguim also, for reference... and a "bonus".

lzcutter Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 Kyle, Those are great Marx Brothers posters! Al Hirschfeld is one of my favorites. I don't know how you find so many great posters month after month but I'm glad you do! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patful Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 *...Al Hirschfeld (who worked at MGM in the 30s)...* - Kyle He was still working for them through at least 1946. I have images of several MGM posters (and have seen some of their promotional ads) with his work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hlywdkjk Posted March 8, 2009 Author Share Posted March 8, 2009 *"He was still working for them through at least 1946."* - patful You're right. Here's some stationery MGM was using in 1945 that is full of Hirschfeld characitures. (All except the showgirls.) Kyle In Hollywood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
