An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Thirty by Forty Movie Poster (30x40; measures 30" x 40" [76 x 102 cm]) (Learn More) Blonde Bait, the 1956 Elmo Williams bad girl crime film noir ("Desperate! Dangerous! Deadly! ... but too beautiful to resist!"; "A beautiful man trap that backfired with bullets..."; "Dangerous decoy in a game of murder! She's a silken trap that waits in the dark... Waiting for the killer with a gun!"; "...the kind of mistake a man can make only once!"; "I don't need a gun to catch a man!") starring Beverly Michaels, Jim Davis, Joan Rice, Richard Travis, and Paul Cavanagh NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have only auctioned this poster once before in 2017 and now that same poster has been reconsigned to us for this auction so it is still the only example we have ever auctioned! Note also that this 30x40 is a silkscreen printed poster with an actual black & white photo which has neatly been "tipped in" (glued to the lower left corner of the poster). This is how almost all 30x40s were made at this time! Paper banners were also commonly made in this way at that time, and it makes for a striking poster, and few people would realize that it is not printed on a single piece, unless they examine the poster closely. Note that the silkscreen portions of this poster usually pick up scuff marks far more easily than other posters of this period (this was caused by the method of silkscreen printing, and is very common on these posters, and is not considered a major defect, unless it is very noticeable or distracting and in this case there are not many scuffs at all!) Also note that this poster was stamped for a 1964 re-release but it is the original poster for this movie. Condition: good to very good. There are red ink pad stamps at left and right (see above). It is otherwise in very nice condition (see our image)! Learn More about condition grades
