A 1945 Re-Release Vintage Theatrical Folded Belgian Movie Poster (measures 11 3/4" x 15 3/4" [30 x 40 cm]) (Learn More)

Only Angels Have Wings, the classic 1939 Howard Hawks romantic love triangle pilot airplane aviation adventure thriller ("Together for the first time"; "Each day a rendezvous with peril... each night a meeting with romance!"; a wild story of a showgirl arriving in a mythical tiny South American country where a cynical American expatriate runs an airplane mail delivery service which involves treacherous plane flights over the Andes; there are other pilots who risk their lives and other romantic involvements, and the plot is really complicated, but the movie moves quickly, and it has a great cast, and is considered one of Howard Hawks' very best movies) starring Cary Grant, Jean Arthur, Thomas Mitchell, Rita Hayworth, Richard Barthelmess, Don 'Red' Barry, Noah Beery Jr., Miisa Sierra, Allyn Joslyn, and Sig Ruman. Note that you almost never see major Hollywood movies with two extremely attractive female leads who are fan favorites, but this one had both Jean Arthur, who had been acting for many years, but was at the height of her popularity, and Rita Hayworth, who would soon become one of America's most favorite sexy actresses!

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare poster. We have only auctioned one from this 1945 re-release in all our years of auctioning and that was 11 years ago! Note also that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube.

Condition: good to very good. The poster was hand-folded and it has a few tiny pinholes around the edges. The upper blank border edge was folded back at one time. It is otherwise in pretty nice condition and after a simple linenbacking the poster will look great!
