Auction History Result 3m0045 BIG SLEEP insert 1946 Humphrey Bogart, sexy Lauren Bacall, directed by Howard Hawks, rare! Date Sold 2/23/2020 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Insert Movie Poster (measures 14" x 36" [36 x 91 cm]) (Learn More) The Big Sleep, the classic 1946 Howard Hawks romantic crime film noir ("The picture they were born for!"; "A Warner hit!!!"; "From the novel by Raymond Chandler"; "Screen Play by William Faulkner, Leigh Brackett & Jules Furthman") starring Humphrey Bogart (as Philip Marlowe), Lauren Bacall, John Ridgely, Martha Vickers, Dorothy Malone, Louis Jean Heydt, Charles Waldron, Charles D. Brown, Bob Steele, Tom Fadden, Ben Welden, and Sonia Darrin. Note that not only did this movie have the direction of Howard Hawks and the great star power of Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall, but it also had the brilliant Raymond Chandler source novel, and a screenplay written by three great writers: Faulkner, Brackett, and Furthman!

Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned one example of this insert, and that was 9 years ago, when it sold for $1,555! Also note that the one-sheet poster from this classic movie has one of the most disappointing images ever! Not only is there a huge red border around a tiny image of Bogart and Bacall, but the poster is also two-color, and the poster designer gave BOTH Bogart and Bacall bright red lips! But this insert poster has two images each of Bogart and Bacall, and is nicely laid out and is vastly superior to the one-sheet! 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: very good. The poster was separating on the top fold and someone put tape on the back of that area. Otherwise, it had pretty minor fold and border wear, with some faint horizontal creases in the top. It will display wonderfully on the new owner's wall! Learn More about condition grades
