An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Mexican Movie Poster (measures 27" x 36 1/4" [69 x 92 cm]) (Learn More)

La Mesera Coja del Cafe del Puerto (literally translates to "The Lame Waitress of the Cafe del Puerto"), the 1950 Juan Orol Mexican/Cuban romantic musical comedy melodrama (about a dancer who helps a composer, and after his success, he wants to marry her!) starring Bertha Montesinos (billed as "Barbara Bertha Montesinos"), Julio Capote (billed as "Julio Capoti"), Martha Rams, Elena Araujo (billed as "Elisa Araujo"), and Alicia Rico. It appears this movie was never released in the U.S. If anyone knows more about this movie, please e-mail us and we will post it here.
If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that we have only once before auctioned this poster, which is a "country of origin" poster for this partially Mexican movie!

Condition: very good. The poster was folded into a relatively small rectangle and it has some blank border loss at right. However, this does not affect the art and it display quite well. This Mexican poster is somewhat fragile. Mexican posters were printed on a paper stock that often ages very poorly, and also darkens. This poster has darkened somewhat and is more fragile along the foldlines (but of course, any talented restorer could linenback the poster, after which it would look great).
