Item Description
24.25x32" metal frame contains original poster that has been matted to 19x26.75". In the 1920s there were a series of musicals based on the comic strip "Bringing Up Father" featuring Maggie and Jiggs. Only one production played on Broadway, while "Bringing Up Father In Florida, ...In Ireland, ...On Broadway" and "...On The Seashore" were traveling productions. Printed by National Printing & Eng. Co. of Chicago/New York, this is for early 1920s production. Top of poster reads "George McManus' Cartoon Musical Comedy" w/title and image of Jiggs and female companion in rollercoaster car.

Some scattered professional restoration, mostly color touch-ups along thin black border. Title paste-over has some scattered age spotting and has 5/8" area of restoration between the L and O in "Florida." Poster retains deep rich colors and displays VF. Rare.
