The Shakedown (Universal, 1929). One Sheet (27 X 41). , Ultimately a story of redemption, we follow a shady boxer, Dave Roberts (James Murray), known for throwing a bout for the right price, whose life changes when he adopts the orphan Clem (Jack Hanlon). Hoping to earn the boys respect, Roberts straightens his life out and finds love with Marjorie, played by Barbara Kent. This well done tearjerker is notable as an early, part-talkie film by the renowned director William Wyler, and as one of the brilliant but too few films starring Murray, who shot to stardom the previous year in King Vidors masterpiece The Crowd, only to die tragically a few years later. Just a gorgeous image, the poster shows only crossfold separations. Very Fine/Near Mint.
