Ready For Love, 1934

About This Piece

Vintage Design

The dazzling Art Deco design, standout typography and vividly contrasting candy pink and emerald green tones combine to irresistible effect on this rare US One Sheet poster for the 1934 Paramount Pictures romantic comedy Ready For Love. The enchanting Ida Lupino starred as a boarding school runaway who falls in love with the handsome newspaper editor who arrives to cover a witchcraft trial in her aunt’s small town, and the pair head off to a happy-ever-after in New York. Notably, the film marked the first appearance of the dog who would go on to appear as Toto in The Wizard of Oz. Condition Very Good (B+) Conservation backed on linen.
