An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Half-Sheet Movie Poster (measures 22" x 28") (Learn More) As Young as You Feel, the 1951 Harmon Jones musical family comedy ("A thousand cheers for the nation's happy-as-a-lark family!"; "A picture about a wonderful family for the whole family to see!!!"; "A picture about a wonderful family - for the whole family to love!!"; "Based on a story by Paddy Chayefsky") starring Monty Woolley ("as Grandpa Hodges"), Thelma Ritter ("as Ma Hodges"), David Wayne ("as Joe"), Jean Peters ("as Alice Hodges"), Constance Bennett, Marilyn Monroe (very young in this role!), Allyn Joslyn, Albert Dekker, Clinton Sundberg, Minor Watson, and Wally Brown. Note that when the movie was first released, the poster designers gave the top four actors prominent billing (including their character names), but not Marilyn Monroe (although they wisely put a sexy image of her alongside the images of the top four stars)! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: very good. This poster was linenbacked, and one of the following is true: either the poster had very minor defects, and was well backed, OR it had more significant defects, but they were well restored, OR it had some minor defects that were not completely restored, and are somewhat noticeable. You can tell which of the above is the case for this particular poster by reading our "pre-restoration" description and also by looking at our "super-sized" image of the actual poster (we are the only major auction company we know of that gives accurate detailed pre-restoration information about linenbacked posters to our bidders, but we wish everyone did!). The poster had creases along the foldlines. There were tears, creases, smudges, and small areas of paper loss in the blank borders. The poster had missing pieces and tears in the blank borders, and the person who did the restoration put new blank white paper over all the borders to even out the appearance (but the small writing at the bottom of the poster was not covered over). This is a common technique used by several top restorers. Learn More about condition grades
