An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Style B Three-Sheet Movie Poster (3sh; measures 41" x 81" [104 x 206 cm]) (Learn More) Where Danger Lives, the 1950 John Farrow romantic crime thriller film noir ("Mitchum! Action!"; "Mitchum in action!"; "She's tempting in a penthouse and dangerous in a bordertown dive!"; "Screenplay by Charles Bennett"; about a doctor who falls in love with a girl who has attempted suicide, but doesn't find out that she's married until they become romantically involved) starring Robert Mitchum, Faith Domergue ("latest star discovery of Howard Hughes who brought you Jean Harlow and Jane Russell"; "Hollywood critics call her the screen's most exciting new star!"), Claude Rains, Maureen O'Sullivan, Charles Kemper, and Ray Teal NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Mario Zamparelli Important Added Info: Note that because this poster has SUCH striking art, it is one of the most desirable 1950s film noir posters, and the last two examples of it we auctioned sold for $4,542 and $4,457! Note that this movie was made by Howard Hughes when he owned RKO, and Hughes oversaw every aspect of the production, as he did with many of the other movies made by him or at his studio. He hired Italian Mario Zamparelli to do the posters for this movie and most of the others Hughes produced in the 1940s and 1950s, but Zamparelli REALLY delivered a spectacular piece of art on this three-sheet (and it is not on any of the other posters for this movie, except for the window card), which makes it one of the most desirable posters of the 1950s, and because the figures are roughly "life size", the poster displays wonderfully in person! Also note that this three-sheet was printed in 2 sections designed to overlap. What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had small paper loss at some crossfolds and some tears and small paper loss on parts of several folds. It had some writing on the back of the top right that slightly bled through to the front and some tears and paper loss in the bottom right corner, slightly affecting the RKO logo. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well! Learn More about condition grades
