An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Let's Make Love, the 1960 George Cukor musical romantic mistaken identity comedy ("It's all about what you can't get enough of! [Fun! Joy! Laughter! And Love! Love! Love!]"; "Meet that man Montand! He's dedicated to the new Monroe Doctrine!"; "Written for the screen by Norman Krasna"; produced by Jerry Wald; about a billionaire who learns that he is going to be parodied in a stage play, and he pretends to be an actor so he can learn what the play is about, and while doing so, he falls in love with the beautiful star) starring Marilyn Monroe, Yves Montand, Tony Randall, Frankie Vaughan, Joe Besser, Wilfrid Hyde-White, and David Burns. Note that Gregory Peck was originally cast as the lead in this movie, but Marilyn Monroe's then-husband, Arthur Miller, re-wrote the script so that she had a bigger role, and that caused Peck to leave. The studio tried to hire Rock Hudson, but couldn't get him, and then they got Yves Montand, who was Marilyn Monroe's pick. That was especially unfortunate and ironic, because Monroe had an affair with him during the filming of the movie (after unsuccessfully attempting to have one with Frankie Vaughan).

The poster had a partial second vertical fold next to the regular one, with minor fold and border wear. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well! Note that the restorer left a tiny bit of excess linen around all four sides of the poster (they left a small border in order to protect the poster from handling damage, but they did not leave a larger border, to allow it to more easily fit in a frame).
