Auction History Result 4x008 BOLD VENTURE standee '51 Humphrey Bogart, Lauren Bacall & Genesee beer are the great stars! Date Sold 9/15/2011 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Beer Advertising Standee (measures 15" x 18") (Learn More) Bold Venture, the 1951 - 1952 Cuba romantic adventure melodrama syndicated radio series ("3 great stars in radio's greatest thriller!"; "Sponsored by Genesee old-fashioned beer & ale goodness"; "Every Wed. at 9:00 P.M. WIBX") starring Humphrey Bogart, Lauren Bacall, and Jester Hairston. Though this is forgotten today, this series starred married Bogart and Bacall, and the show was set in Cuba, where Bogart owned a hotel and an old boat. The producers wisely used elements from Bogart's greatest past successes, including the ship and basic plot from "To Have and Have Not" and Jester Hairston played a calypso singer at Bogart's hotel, who was exactly like Sam in "Casablanca"! There are 57 known episodes from this show, and possibly there were more. The show was turned into a TV series, but the stars did not go along with it, and Dane Clark starred, and it did not last long. Surely any promotional items from this radio show are scarce, and any Humphrey Bogart poster collector would surely the few items that exist from it. To date, we have auctioned a standee and a billboard poster, and nothing else from this show! Condition: good. The easel backing is still on the back of the standee. There are scattered water stains on the front and back of the standee, with some creases, scratches, and scuffs scattered on the front, including some in the heads of the stars.
