Another great item I spotted last week while out on my rockin' road trip was this incredible Garrick Theater flyer for the WW1 aviation film, Hell's Angels from 1930. Directed by Howard Hughes and James Whale, and starring platinum screen superstar, Jean Harlow in her first credited major feature film role, this appears to be an original 30's ''last days run" theatrical herald, mounted and shellacked on a piece of antique wood. Super pricy, unfortunately, but convinced me enough to re-watch this bombers 'n bombshell blockbuster again as soon as I returned home from my trip. A true motion picture classic, --and be sure to click the Wiki link above to read about some of the more fascinating (and deadly) details surrounding the film's production.
