An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27 3/4" x 41 3/4" [70 x 106 cm]) (Learn More)

Rhythm and Blues Revue, the 1955 Joseph Kohn & Leonard Reed black African American R&B musical ("It's the greatest! Get with it!"; "New new New"; "In Kaleidoscopic WonderColor") starring Count Basie, Joe Turner, Sarah Vaughan, Herb Jeffries, Faye Adams, Amos Milburn, Lionel Hampton, Ruth Brown, Nat 'King' Cole, The Larks, The Delta Rhythm Boys, Martha Davis, Billy Bailey, Mantan Moreland & 'Nipsey' Russell, Freddy & Flo Robinson, Little Buck, Paul 'Hucklebuck' Williams & His Orchestra, and M.C. Willie Bryant. Note that the tagline for this movie says, "It's the Greatest!". Given the really amazing lineup in this movie, it sounds like for once the tagline was truth in advertising! Note that Herb Jeffries was a black African American actor who starred in four well-remembered all-black cast cowboy movies in the 1930s, but then largely retired from movies, playing himself in this movie.

Important Added Info: Note that this one-sheet measures 27 3/4" x 41 3/4" [70 x 106 cm] and it does not appear to have been trimmed.

Condition: good. The poster is somewhat discolored and there are some light stains and smudges scattered throughout. There is a piece of brown tape on the back that slightly bleeds through to the front of the poster at lower center in the area of Cole's hair. There is a 2" tear in the upper right edge and there is some tattering and small paper loss around the edges of the poster (mostly along the right edge).
