Auction History Result 5x0352 BIRDS Aust 1sh 1963 director Alfred Hitchcock shown, Tippi Hedren, intense litho art! Date Sold 9/20/2020 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Australian One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 40" [69 x 102 cm]) (Learn More) Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds, the classic 1963 Alfred Hitchcock suspense horror thriller ("Nothing you have ever witnessed before has prepared you for such sheer stabbing shock!"; "'It could be the most terrifying motion picture I have ever made!' - Alfred Hitchcock"; "'...and remember, the next scream you hear may be your own!'"; "The birds is here!"; "Daphne Du Maurier's shattering psychic thriller."; "Based on Daphne Du Maurier's Classic Suspense Story!") starring Rod Taylor, Jessica Tandy, Suzanne Pleshette, Tippi Hedren (billed as "Introducing 'Tippi' Hedren, A Fascinating New Personality"), Veronica Cartwright (13 years old), and Richard Deacon. Note that Alfred Hitchcock used the two taglines "The birds is coming!" and "The birds is here!" on several different types of advertising for this movie, no doubt because he thought it was funny that while it is technically grammatically correct when referring to the movie, they "sound wrong"!

Important Added Info: Note that we have only auctioned two examples of this poster before, and the alt time it sold for $473! Condition: good to very good. The poster has pairs of staple holes around the edges, and someone likely roughly removed the poster from a surface roughly, resulting in some paper loss at lower left that affects blank paper and a small portion of the yellow background. It has black marker writing on the back that slightly bleeds through to the front at lower right (see our image) and a small tear to the upper right of that image, and there are some tiny dot stains on back of the center that very slightly bleed through to the front in the "Bi" of "Birds". It is otherwise in generally nice condition and while it could be displayed as it is, after a relatively simple linenbacking with some restoration the poster would look great!
