An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Irving Berlin's There's No Business Like Show Business, the 1954 Walter Lang stage acting family relationship romantic musical ("With Love and Kisses from 20th Century-Fox... Straight from the shoulder, right from the heart comes Irving Berlin's There's No Business Like Show Business"; "The Musicavalcade and the Personal Story of the Greatest Business On Earth"; "Rising like a song of songs from show business' heart of hearts!"; "From a story by Lamar Trotti - Lyrics and Music by Irving Berlin"; produced by Darryl F. Zanuck) starring Ethel Merman, Donald O'Connor, Marilyn Monroe (in a small, but important role), Dan Dailey, Johnnie Ray, and Mitzi Gaynor. Note that 20th Century-Fox cast singer Johnnie Ray as one of the family members, thinking the likeable singer would move on to many more roles in their musicals, but unfortunately, he was a gay homosexual male at a time when that was not tolerated in Hollywood, and that surely greatly hurt his career.

The poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and some separation, tiny tears, and tiny bits of paper loss on several folds. It had pinholes around the edges. It had a stamp on the back that bled through to the front in the top of the "INE" of the first "BUSINESS" of the title, and another stamp that bled through to the front in the last "E" of "CINEMASCOPE". 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, and the restorer left alone the bleed-through from the stamps described above.
