An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41") (Learn More) The Story of Three Loves, the 1953 Gottfried Reinhardt & Vincente Minnelli musical romantic melodrama ("Dangerous Love!"; "Forbidden Love!"; "Jealous Love!"; "Stories by Arnold Phillips, Ladislas Vajda and Jacques Maret") starring Pier Angeli, Ethel Barrymore, Leslie Caron, Kirk Douglas, Farley Granger, James Mason, Agnes Moorehead, Moira Shearer (the British ballerina in her Hollywood debut!), and Richard Anderson NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: good. This poster has been linenbacked, but it was not very well done, either because the restorer did not do a very good job, or because the years since it has been linenbacked have not been kind to the poster. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to linenbacking. Generally, it had small paper loss at the crossfolds. There was a 5" tear in the top middle of the poster (extending into Douglas' chin), and a 2" tear and surface paper loss in the bottom center of the image, extending into Mason's chin, as well as minor fold and border wear. The poster was not that well backed, because you can see signs of the above general defects and the restoration of the defects (in some cases, as should be immediately evident in our image, the linenbacker did no restoration to some of the defects). I would think few collectors would want to display it as it is, without someone performing some additional restoration. Certainly, a talented restorer could perform additional restoration (either with or without re-backing the poster), but it might be fairly expensive to have this done, so bear that in mind before you place a bid.
