When Comedy was King - insert Charlie Chaplin, Buster Keaton, Laurel & Hardy, Langdon 1960

14in x 36in

CONDITION: Good to very good. Someone drew glasses and Laurel's image at upper right. There are minor creases throughout the poster and there are pairs of staple holes around the edges. Note that this poster has never been machine folded! Most insert posters were folded twice horizontally right off of the printing press. It is very difficult to find an unfolded example of most insert posters, especially from before 1970!
