An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41") (Learn More) Stanley Kramer's The Men, the 1950 Fred Zinnemann post-World War II (WWII) romantic hospital doctor paralyzed veteran rehabilitation melodrama ("A completely new experience between men and women!..."; "More punch than 'Champion' more guts than 'Home of the Brave'"; "from the producer who dares to make pictures as they've never been made before..."; "Story and Screenplay by Carl Foreman"; "Produced by Stanley Kramer"; about a paralyzed veteran who cannot cope with his injury from World War II) starring Marlon Brando (in his very first movie!), Teresa Wright, Everett Sloane, Jack Webb, Richard Erdman, Virginia Farmer, Dorothy Tree, and Howard St. John. Note that United Artists was panic-stricken at the thought of promoting a movie about a paralyzed man (even though he was a World War II veteran), and so they promoted the movie with an image of Brando shown from the waist up (so you couldn't see his wheelchair!), and the really vague and bizarre tagline, "a completely new experience between men and women!". NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had separation and faint smudges on parts of some foldlines and some pinholes around the edges of the poster. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well! Learn More about condition grades
