An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Italian Two-Panel (known in Italy as a "4 Fogli") Movie Poster (2p; measures 55" x 78" [140 x 198 cm]) (Learn More)

Nobody Lives Forever, the 1946 Jean Negulesco romantic crime film noir (based on the novel 'I Wasn't Born Yesterday' by W.R. Burnett; "Original screen play by W.R. Burnett") starring John Garfield, Geraldine Fitzgerald, Walter Brennan, Faye Emerson, George Coulouris, and George Tobias

Artist: Averardo Ciriello
Important Added Info: Note that we have auctioned this poster only once before, in early 2014, when it auctioned for $1,599! Also note that this is an Italian poster from right after World War II! Virtually no Italian posters survive from right after World War II (mostly only some heavy stock lobby cards, and even those are rare). Apparently there were many paper shortages in Italy during World War II, resulting in the destruction of almost all posters from before World War II, and also from during the war, and the first few years afterwards! Also note that this Italian two-panel was printed in 2 sections designed to overlap.

Condition: good. The poster has darkened on the foldlines and has some darkening, tears, and tiny bits of paper loss on parts of the foldlines and the borders, and the entire poster is fragile. There is light red staining in the center of the top border that extends into the background there, and there is similar light red staining in the center of the left and right blank borders. Certainly this great (and surely rare) poster should immediately have expert professional restoration. But the poster is mostly "all there", and after linenbacking by a talented professional, the poster will look fantastic, and it will likely require little paint restoration within the image (except for the exact defects described above).
