An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28") (Learn More) How to Marry a Millionaire, the 1953 Jean Negulesco New York City romantic gold digger comedy ("The Most Glamorous Entertainment Of Your Lifetime in CinemaScope, You See it Without Glasses!"; "Based on Plays by Zoe Akins and Dale Eunson and Katherine Albert"; about three beautiful but poor young women who come to New York City and rent a very expensive apartment, intending to each find a millionaire husband before the rent is due!; the movie was the first ever filmed in the new CinemaScope process, although "The Robe" beat it to the screen) starring Marilyn Monroe, Betty Grable, Lauren Bacall, David Wayne, Rory Calhoun, Cameron Mitchell, Alex D'Arcy, Fred Clark, and William Powell 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 this poster will need to be sent in a very large flat package (because it is dry-mounted on a board, it could not possibly be rolled) that measures approximately 24" x 30" x 1" high, so please bear the shipping costs of this very large package in mind BEFORE you place a bid! Condition: good. The poster was never folded. There was a 4" jagged tear in the top center of the poster, and a scratch mark in Bacall's blouse. It had some creases and scuffs scattered throughout, more so around the edges. It had smudges, creases, and some tiny tears in the borders. Whoever owned this poster had it dry-mounted onto a stiff backing board, and did no restoration whatsoever. While it displays pretty well just as it is, I think that if I owned this great poster, I would have it removed from the board and paperbacked and restored. But please do not bid on this poster unless you have read the above carefully and can accept the poster's defects and that it is dry-mounted on a board. Note that at some point after the poster was dry-mounted onto the board, it was creased in the top left blank corner (both in the poster and in the backing board). Learn More about condition grades
