Auction History Result 3e503 OCEAN'S 11 one-sheet poster '60 Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., classic Rat Pack! Date Sold 12/25/2008 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41") (Learn More) Ocean's Eleven, the classic 1960 Lewis Milestone Las Vegas Nevada Rat Pack multi-million-dollar multi-casino hold-up gambling crime caper thriller ("That Big One!!"; "Nobody else would have dared it because nobody else would have the nerve!"; "You wouldn't call it a gang. Just Danny Ocean and his 11 pals - the night they blew all the lights in Las Vegas!..."; about 11 Army veterans joining together to rob five Las Vegas casinos at once!) starring Frank Sinatra (in the title role as Danny Ocean), Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., Peter Lawford (the preceding were called "The Rat Pack" because they were real-life friends who socialized regularly), Angie Dickinson, Richard Conte, Cesar Romero, Patrice Wymore, Joey Bishop (who surprisingly was given very low billing, under that of Patrice Wymore!), Akim Tamiroff, Henry Silva, and "Guest Stars" Red Skelton, George Raft, and Ilka Chase. Note that several Las Vegas casinos agreed to allow filming within their casinos, and without that, the movie could never have been made for a reasonable price. This might seem odd, given that the premise of the movie was a massive robbery of the casinos, but it would be next to impossible to accomplish in real life, because Las Vegas is in the middle of a giant desert, so even if such a robbery could be successful, how would the perpetrators escape with the money? NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: fair to good. There is a 1 1/2" tear in Martin's and Davis Jr.'s image (both repaired with tape from the back). There is rippling and discoloration throughout the poster and there is some water staining and small paper loss along the bottom edge. There is separation along the bottom of the vertical fold and several small tears around the edges of the poster (again, most repaired with tape from the back). This poster would respond well to restoration and linenbacking. Its colors are still fairly vibrant and a talented restorer could surely fix its defects! Learn More about condition grades
