To Kill a Mockingbird, the classic 1962 Robert Mulligan (nominated for the Best Director Academy Award for this film) courtroom lawyer legal family relationship interracial relations melodrama ("The most beloved and widely read Pulitzer Prize Winner now comes vividly alive on the screen!"; "Based upon Harper Lee's novel 'To Kill a Mockingbird'"; "The most beloved and widely read book of the decade now comes vividly alive on the screen!"; "Pulitzer Prize winner"; "The Pulitzer Prize novel that has become a legend in its own time is now a memorable motion picture!"; nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award; about a noble southern lawyer who defends a black African American man falsely accused of raping a white woman, and this courageous act puts his family in jeopardy) starring Gregory Peck (winner of the Best Actor Academy Award for this film; as Atticus Finch), Mary Badham (nominated for the Best Supporting Actress Academy Award for this film; as "Scout"), Phillip Alford ("as Jem"), John Megna (as Dill; perhaps based on Harper's friend Truman Capote), Ruth White, Paul Fix, Brock Peters (as Tom Robinson), Frank Overton, Rosemary Murphy, Collin Wilcox Paxton (as Mayella), Robert Duvall (in his first role; as "Boo Radley", who was described in some of the advertising as a "mentally-retarded recluse", which is completely wrong!), William Windom (as The Prosecutor), James Anderson, and Estelle Evans (as the maid Calpurnia). Note that for many years, it was believed that the author of the novel "To Kill a Mockingbird", Harper Lee, had only written this one book and never wrote another (she was childhood friends with Truman Capote, and most believe John Megna's character in the movie is based on Capote, and some believe that Capote helped Lee write the novel). But in 2014, it was discovered that Lee had written an earlier novel, called "Go Set a Watchman", before "To Kill a Mockingbird", but it was never published until 2015, and was published exactly as it was written, in 2015 (Lee was 88 years old at the time of publishing, and did not publicize the "new" book)!

Important Added Info:

Note that all but 28 of the folded one-sheets in this Part I of eMoviePoster.com's December Major Auction were consigned to us by legendary French dealer/collector Dominique Besson.

Dominique Besson started collecting movie posters in 1981, and became a dealer in French and European posters in 1994, and has remained as a top dealer ever since!

But in addition, 30 years ago, Dominique began collecting U.S. one-sheets, first those with Saul Bass art, and then adding Alfred Hitchcock posters, then Humphrey Bogart, and he finally ended up collecting in an amazing total of 47 different categories, purchasing the posters from all over the world!

Now the time has come to sell this wonderful collection, and Dominique has chosen eMoviePoster.com to do so, through our auctions!

As noted above, all but 28 of the folded one-sheets in this Part I come from this more remarkable collection (the 28 that do not were consigned to us by other collectors, and are clearly marked).

This is not all of the Dominique Besson collection we are auctioning. In addition, there are approximately 200 more folded one-sheets that will be in Part IV of this special auction (ones from the 1970s to present), and there are approximately 100 unfolded one-sheets that will be in Part III (including many great ones).

This is a very rare opportunity to purchase folded one-sheets (all of which have had no professional restoration) from one of the greatest one-sheet collections assembled!

Note that this one-sheet is from the category that Dominique Besson collected on that he labeled "1960s".
