Arsenic and Old Lace (Warner Brothers, 1944). Insert (14" X 36").
A news reporter (Cary Grant) goes home to tell his two aunts that he's finally gotten married, but when he arrives he finds the ladies have a knack for killing off elderly men and burying them in their basement. The situation only gets worse when his brother, a psychopathic murderer (Raymond Massey) has just escaped from jail and arrives home at the same time. The rest of the cast features Priscilla Lane as Grant's newlywed bride and Peter Lorre as the evil Dr. Einstein who assists Massey in his diabolical plans. This classic film was further proof that Grant was just as comfortable with comedy as he was with suave sophistication. The poster has had touchup to a top center pinhole, a small tear in the left and right border, a minor tear at the upper center background, a bottom fold with slight paper loss, and a bottom right corner chip. The white areas of the poster have had light airbrushing, and the piece now displays very well. Fine+ on Paper.
