Note that the image of Marilyn Monroe with her skirt blowing up is rightfully the most remembered image of Marilyn from any of her movies. But this movie also has the memorable scene which was extremely risque for its time, where a naked Marilyn in a bubble bath gets her toe caught in the faucet and a plumber must free her!

Condition: very good. tiny separation and tiny paper loss at each crossfold; light creases throughout the poster; some faint discoloration and smudges in the white background areas; a tiny tear at the top and bottom of the vertical foldline; a diagonal crease in the lower right corner; The poster is in better condition than the above makes it sound!

Its defects are the sort that would vanish if it were linenbacked and the poster would look wonderful without having hardly any paint anywhere on it! Learn More about condition grades
