Description

Bette Davis exceedingly rare window card for her failed stage play Miss Moffatt. (1974) Vintage original 22 x 14 in. window card, for the ill-fated musical version of Emlyn William's The Corn is Green, which Davis received an Academy Award nomination for playing the lead in the 1945 film. It seemed like an excellent source for a musical, and top theatre figures were engaged to make it a success. However, when critics panned it Bette left the show, citing a back injury, closing it immediately after just two weeks. Exhibiting pinholes in each of the four corners. In vintage fine condition.
