Auction History Result 5z486 SHE SHOULDA SAID NO 30x40 '49 big midnite show only with an all-star Hollywood cast, rare! Date Sold 4/13/2017 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Thirty by Forty Movie Poster (30x40; measures 30" x 40" [76 x 102 cm]) (Learn More) She Shoulda Said No (also released in both the U.S. and Germany as "Devil's Weed"), the 1949 Sam Newfield teen exploitation drug movie ("This Kansas blond made 'Just One Mistake'!"; "Still you will love her"; "A teen-age thunderbolt!"; "Mothers and Dads bring those 'Teen-Agers'!"; "Special big midnite show only!"; "For none under sixteen -police order"; "It's new and dynamic!"; "The new surprise hit the nation is stayin' up to see"; "It's thrilling crowds in 50 cities every midnight"; "Get up a big party"; "Stay up or stay dumb!") starring Alan Baxter, Lyle Talbot, Lila Leeds, Michael Whalen, and Mary Ellen Popel. Note that this movie was made in 1949, but was then shown throughout America over the next few years, surely mostly in small towns, and often in special midnight shows (because a "police order" said that it could not be shown before midnight, and no one under 16 was allowed!). Note that we have seen two very similar 40x60s and a one-sheet, and the 40x60s have different taglines, indicating they were printed at different times (and as we say, they likely date from the early 1950s). UPDATE: We were consigned a 30x40 that has a completely different image from the other posters we have previously seen, and this one has a tagline that says "Big Midnite Show Only" and "It's thrilling crowds in 50 cities every midnite!", which reinforces that what we said above is correct, and that this movie was playing throughout small town America in the early 1950s, but we still are unable to exactly date the posters we have seen!

Important Added Info: Note that, as noted above, we had never auctioned this poster until it was just now consigned to us, and this poster has a completely different image and taglines from the other posters we have had. Also note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: fair. There is light water staining across the center and across the top and bottom of the poster. It extends into the text areas at top and bottom, and of course goes through the image in the middle. While the staining is not terribly distracting, the poster should certainly be restored. Please do not bid on this poster unless you can accept its defects described above or are willing to pay to have them properly restored. Learn More about condition grades
