BRINGING UP FATHER

Original British 11 inch x 8 1/2 inch Double-Sided Trade Advertisement from Kinematograph Weekly for the 1946 Edward F. Cline Comedy BRINGING UP FATHER, based on the comic strip by George McManus and starring Joe Yule, Renie Riano and Tim Ryan.

Maggie and her snooty society friends fool Jiggs and his buddies down at Dinty’s tavern into not only signing a petition to close the bar, but they also trick them into taking the “temperaance” pledge to forsake all alcohol.

On the reverse is the 1946 William Nigh Western BEAUTY AND THE BANDIT starring Gilbert Roland as The Cisco Kid, Martín Garralaga, Frank Yaconelli, Ramsay Ames, Vida Aldana, George J. Lewis, William Gould, Dimas Sotello and Felipe Turich.

In Old California, a young Frenchman transporting a chest full of silver travels by stagecoach to San Marino, to complete a complex business deal. The stagecoach is ambushed by a band of men whose leader, a mysterious bandido known as Cisco (Gilbert Roland), claims the silver is money that was extorted over a period of years from the poor people of California. The bandits take the money and escape, but Cisco stays behind with the Frenchman — who, it turns out, is actually a lovely mademoiselle, Jeanne DuBois (Ramsay Ames). She follows him to the bandit’s lair, where Cisco tells her he intends to return the stolen money to the poor people. The two rivals are irresistibly drawn to each other, however, and as a token of love Cisco offers to return the money to Jeanne instead. Now she must decide whether to complete her business deal, or to comply with Cisco’s wishes and redistribute the wealth.
