An Original 1956 (from the first release of this movie in Belgium) Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Belgian Movie Poster (measures 14 1/4" x 19 1/4" [36 x 49 cm]) (Learn More) Alfred Hitchcock's The Trouble With Harry, the 1955 Alfred Hitchcock mystery crime black comedy ("The unexpected from Hitchcock!"; "Screenplay by John Michael Hayes"; "Based on the Novel by Jack Trevor Story"; about a group of people in a small New England town who find a body in the woods, and all suspect themselves of having something to do with the death) starring Edmund Gwenn, John Forsythe, Shirley MacLaine (billed as "introducing Shirley MacLaine"; in her first movie role!), Jerry Mathers, Royal Dano, Mildred Natwick, Mildred Dunnock, and Philip Truex (uncredited; in the title role as Harry) NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster has an image of Alfred Hitchcock at the top looking down at the cast. Because that was often done after 1960, when he achieved greater fame with "Psycho", we wonder if this is not a 1960s re-release, but there is nothing to indicate it, plus we have never seen an "earlier" version. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Note that this poster has been trimmed and it now measures 14 1/4" x 19 1/4" [36 x 49 cm]. What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster originally had a blank top that was neatly trimmed off (this is commonly done with Belgian posters, similar to how the blank top is trimmed off of U.S. window cards). The poster also had extra horizontal folds near the center. It had tears in the top right corner, with paper loss in the top of Hitchcock's head, no doubt caused by rough removal of a snipe that was in that area. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects.
