eMoviePoster.comAuction History Result 7d0029 LOT OF 100 UNFOLDED GUYS & DOLLS BELGIAN REPRODUCTION POSTERS 1990s Brando, Sinatra, Simmons Date Sold 9/1/2024Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. a lot of 100 unfolded Belgian reproduction posters from Guys and Dolls, the 1955 Joseph L. Mankiewicz New York City romantic gambling Broadway dance musical ("It's a living breathing doll of a musical!"; "Samuel Goldwyn presents America's Own Musical!"; based on the play by Abe Burrows & Jo Swerling; about a professional gambler who bets an operator of an illegal craps game that he can take a beautiful Salvation Army worker to Cuba with him for dinner!) starring Marlon Brando (as Sky Masterson), Jean Simmons (as Sister Sarah Brown), Frank Sinatra (as Nathan Detroit), Vivian Blaine (as Miss Adelaide), Robert Keith (as Lt. Brannigan), Stubby Kaye (as Nicely-Nicely Johnson), B.S. Pully (as Big Jule), Johnny Silver (as Benny Southstreet), Sheldon Leonard (as Harry the Horse), The Goldwyn Girls, and Larri Thomas (as the sexy Cuban dancer who flirts with Brando in Cuba, and gets in a fight with Simmons!). Note that Sam Levene was the original Nathan Detroit in the first stage version of "Guys and Dolls", but he was replaced for the movie by Frank Sinatra, because producer Sam Goldwyn did not consider Levene a big enough name, and Goldwyn also refused to let Sinatra play Sky Masterson, who would have been wonderful, and instead Goldwyn cast Marlon Brando (which led to much friction between Brando and Sinatra)! Measurements: 16" x 20"Note that this poster is a REPRODUCTION and is not an original poster and it measures larger than the original poster. But it is higher quality than the vast majority of reproductions! It was one of a set of 10 that was created in the 1990s by a man in the movie business and they measure 16" x 20". Each of those were printed on a higher quality thicker paper stock than "regular" Belgian posters, and the printing quality is quite nice (see our image). When they were made, they retailed for $25 each, or $200 for the set of 10. Over the past few years, we have auctioned some of these as sets and some of these as singles, and the buyers of those often resell them on eBay or Facebook for much higher amounts. NOW, THE CONSIGNOR OF THESE WANTS US TO AUCTION THESE IN LARGE QUANTITIES OF EACH, AND WE ARE AUCTIONING 100 OF EACH OF THE 10 REPROS (in 10 separate auctions), AND THERE WILL BE THE OPPORTUNITY FOR THE WINNING BIDDERS TO MAKE A LOT OF PROFIT RESELLING THESE! IMPORTANT! The lot contains multiple examples of the same poster, so we have only pictured one (as well as the front and back of the envelope they are all in), but the winner of this auction receives all of them! Condition: very good to fine. We have only pictured one of the REPRODUCTIONS , but all of them are in similar condition. They are in the original package of 100, as they were received from the printer, and are in excellent condition! Learn More about condition grades Titles included:
