An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Thirty by Forty Movie Poster (30x40; measures 30" x 40") (Learn More)

The First Traveling Saleslady, the 1956 Arthur Lubin romantic musical comedy ("Foot-loose and fancy free... [like every gal would like to be!]"; "She knows the Ropes and all the Jokes"; "Biggest deal since Eve sold Adam!"; "Please Don't Tell What Ginger Sells! It's Banned In Texas!"; "Told with a wink in Technicolor shocking pink!"; "Here she comes with the BIGGEST DEAL since EVE sold ADAM!"; "Have you heard the one about...?"; far less sexy than the posters made it sound, Ginger and Carol are actually trying to sell barbed-wire to Texas cattlemen who want to keep their open ranges!) starring Ginger Rogers, Barry Nelson, Carol Channing, David Brian, James Arness, and Clint Eastwood (in his first real role, after several uncredited and bit parts!)

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Also note that this 30x40 is a silkscreen printed poster with an actual photo which has neatly been "tipped in" (glued to the lower left of the poster). It makes for a striking poster, and few people would realize that it is not printed on a single piece, unless they examine the poster closely. Note that the silkscreen portions of this poster usually pick up scuff marks far more easily than other posters of this period (this was caused by the method of silkscreen printing, and is very common on these posters, and is not considered a major defect, unless it is very noticeable or distracting).

Condition: good. There are creases, smudges, and scuffs throughout the poster.
