Rhapsody, the 1954 Charles Vidor romantic love triangle violinist musical melodrama ("MGM's Magnificent Drama of Music and Romance"; "Drama of Love... and Desire!"; "'I must possess the man I love - heart, body and soul!'"; "Based on the novel 'Maurice Guest' by Henry Handel Richardson") starring Elizabeth Taylor, Vittorio Gassman, John Ericson, Louis Calhern, Michael Chekhov, and Barbara Bates

Important Added Info: Note that we have only auctioned three examples of this rare poster in all our years of auctioning! Note also that this rare Japanese "B1" poster measures 28 1/2" x 40 1/2" [72 x 103 cm]! "B1" posters are FAR more rare than "B2" posters (which measure approximately 20" x 28 1/2"), and because they are larger (similar in size to a U.S. one-sheet), they are more impressive when displayed on a wall! Also note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube.

Condition: good to very good. The poster was folded once horizontally and it was also folded in half an extra time resulting in a light vertical foldline at left and right. There is wear along the center horizontal fold and there is some slight discoloration and paper loss at upper right and at bottom right (a smaller amount). It is otherwise in pretty nice condition and after linenbacking the rare poster will look great!
