Important Added Info: Note that it has been established that the leg in the iconic image on this item belongs to Linda Gray (who later went on to fame in TV's "Dallas"), and not Anne Bancroft. However, as it is clearly intended to be thought of as Bancroft's leg (Gray was an unbilled body double, or more accurately, "leg double"), we are referring to it as such. Note that this movie was first released by Embassy Pictures in December 1967 to qualify for the Oscars, and it stayed in release through Embassy until April 1968, when the Oscars were held (there was also an international release through United Artists at the same time). There are Embassy stills are dated both 1967 and 1968, and they have a slight difference in how the text at the bottom is arranged. This still is one of the ones dated 1968. Also note that this still has been trimmed and it now measures 7 3/4" x 10" [20 x 25 cm]. Condition: good. The top blank border was neatly partially trimmed off (likely to fit a frame). There are faint creases and scuffs scattered in the still. Learn More about condition grades
