Auction History Result f486 TO HAVE & HAVE NOT linen one-sheet movie poster '44 Bogart, Bacall Date Sold 4/3/2007Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (measures 27" x 41") (Learn More) Ernest Hemingway's To Have and Have Not, the classic 1944 Howard Hawks World War II (WWII) romantic suspense melodrama ("Humphrey Bogart... with his kind of woman in a powerful adaptation of Ernest Hemingway's most daring man-woman story!"; very loosely adapted from the classic story by Ernest Hemingway, "Screen Play by Jules Furthman and William Faulkner"; "If you want anything mister, ...just whistle!"; "It happens this way.."; "In love with his kind of woman!"; this was the movie where middle-aged Humphrey Bogart met 19 year old Lauren Bacall, and won her romantically, both on and off the screen) starring Humphrey Bogart, Walter Brennan, Lauren Bacall (in her very first movie role!), Hoagy Carmichael, Sheldon Leonard, Dan Seymour, Dolores Moran, Marcel Dalio, and Walter Sande. Note that this movie was not very faithful to Ernest Hemingway's story. Just six years later, Warner Bros. remade the movie with John Garfield and Patricia Neal, and this time they were more faithful to the story. Finally, note that there is a story that has circulated for many decades that male singer Andy Williams dubbed Lauren Bacall's voice for her song in this movie! Many people say this is absolutely an urban legend, and that Williams did record the song, but Howard Hawks decided to go with Lauren Bacall's version instead, and Bacall herself said it was definitely her singing, but there is no stopping an urban legend! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: very good. The poster had very tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and a few creases and tiny tears in the vertical foldline. There were four 1" vertical tears in the right half of the bottom foldline. There were some pinholes in the corners and creases and faint smudges around the edges of the poster. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The person who backed the poster pretty much just backed it "as is". If I owned this classic poster, I would surely have it professionally re-backed by a talented restorer (although it certainly would display fine just as it is). After proper restoration and re-backing, the poster will look fantastic, and there will truly have been little restoration anywhere on the poster. Note that the restorer who mounted the poster did not leave any excess linen around the edges of the poster. Learn More about condition grades
