An Original Vintage Unfolded Half-Sheet Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More)

No Time For Sergeants, the 1958 Mervyn LeRoy U.S. Air Force military slapstick comedy ("The funniest play and the happiest best-seller is even funnier on the screen!"; "The Wonderful guys who won a medal for strictly nothing --and win a Laugh for strictly everything they do! From the same studio and director that gave you 'Mister Roberts' - AND EVEN FUNNIER!"; "The picture that's winning every medal for mirth!"; "Screenplay by John Lee Mahn"; about a country bumpkin who joins the military, and outsmarts all the "city folk"; years later, the basic plot would be borrowed for "Gomer Pyle", which was a spin-off from "The Andy Griffith Show") starring Andy Griffith ("starring in the stage role that rocketed him to fame!"), Myron McCormick, Nick Adams, Murray Hamilton, Howard Smith, Jean Wiles, and Don Knotts (he appears in a very minor role at the beginning of the movie, and he also played that part in the stage play version, and no doubt Andy Griffith remembered how funny Knotts was a few years later when he was about to star in "The Andy Griffith Show", which likely contributed to how Knotts became Barney Fife!)

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this poster has never been machine folded! Some pre-1970 half-sheet posters were machine folded twice horizontally at the poster exchange, while some were not. It can be difficult to find an unfolded example of many pre-1970 half-sheet posters (note that most post-1970 half-sheets were NOT machine folded, so they are pretty much only found unfolded, and therefore this does not apply to those half-sheets).

Condition: good to very good.
