Auction History Result 8r080 JAIL BAIT 1sh 1954 Ed Wood classic, girls like Dolores Fuller are hot, Steve Reeves, rare! Date Sold 8/16/2018 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Jail Bait, the 1954 Edward D. Wood Jr. (Ed Wood) bad girl crime thriller ("Danger!.. These Girls are Hot!"; "Stay Away From Them... They're Jail Bait!"; "Find the woman... the men can't be far away!"; "Original Screenplay by Alex Gordon and Edward D. Wood, Jr.") starring Dolores Fuller, Lyle Talbot, Steve Reeves, Theodora Thurman, John Martin, Scott McCloud, Bud Osborne, Timothy Farrell, Mona McKinnon, Herbert Rawlinson, and Clancy Malone. Note that Timothy Farrell is completely forgotten today, but he had a fascinating life. He worked for 26 years for the Los Angeles County Marshal's Office, and was a movie actor at the same time! He mostly worked on low budget movies, including several for Ed Wood, although he did play a bailiff in the 1954 "A Star is Born", which was the ultimate typecasting, because he himself had been a bailiff, but he eventually rose to be the County Marshal. But in 1975, he was convicted of a felony (using deputies for political activities), and he was fired. He lived for another 14 years before dying of a heart attack. His life should be made into a movie, no doubt with Johnny Depp in the starring role! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this is a rare poster (we have only auctioned three examples of it in all our years of auctioning). All three of those posters, like this one, were in lesser condition, which seems especially fitting for an Ed Wood movie! Condition: good. The poster has separation and small paper loss at the top crossfold and separation on parts of several other folds. It has pinholes in the corners, with some tears in the top border and staining in the bottom left corner that enters the bottom of the image. Obviously, this great poster can be linenbacked and restored, but bear in mind its defects and the cost of restoration before bidding on it. Learn More about condition grades
