An Original 1961 (from the first release of this movie in Poland) Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Polish Movie Poster (measures 15 3/4" x 23 1/2" [40 x 60 cm]) (Learn More) The Seven Year Itch, the classic 1955 Billy Wilder married-man-with-roving-eye romantic comedy ("It's the stage riot that rocked New York for 3 years!"; "Based upon an original Play 'The Seven Year Itch' by George Axelrod"; the movie that features the famous scene where Marilyn is standing over the grating as her dress flies up around her legs; the entire movie was very sensational in its day!) starring Marilyn Monroe, Tom Ewell, Evelyn Keyes, Sonny Tufts, Robert Strauss, Oscar Homolka, Marguerite Chapman, Victor Moore (as the plumber; in his final movie role), Dolores Rosedale (billed as "Roxanne"), and Carolyn Jones. Note that the image of Marilyn Monroe with her skirt blowing up is rightfully the most remembered image of Marilyn from any of her movies. But this movie also has the memorable scene which was extremely risque for its time, where a naked Marilyn in a bubble bath gets her toe caught in the faucet and a plumber must free her! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Maciej Hibner Important Added Info: Note that this Polish poster has great different art that shows Marilyn Monroe literally trying to catch Tom Ewell in a fishbowl with a fish hook! We have not seen this art on any other poster. We have only auctioned this poster once before, and that was in 2006, and the person who purchased that poster has re-consigned it, so it is still the only example of this poster we have ever auctioned.

The poster had light water staining in the yellow background area near the middle of the poster. There were some minor creases along the two foldlines. There was a 1 1/2" tear in the lower right border and some minor border defects. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but the restorer did not address the faint water stains near the middle of the poster (which are truly not very noticeable or distracting).
