Auction History Result 2z280 ANDY WARHOL'S L'AMOUR 1sh '73 female American hippies in Paris want husbands, ultra rare! Date Sold 12/8/2016 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Andy Warhol's L'Amour, the 1973 Paul Morrissey & Andy Warhol Paris France romantic sexploitation melodrama ("A new film by Andy Warhol & Paul Morrissey"; about two American hippie females in Paris, looking to have sexual adventures and land rich husbands) starring Michael Sklar, Donna Jordan, Jane Forth, Max Delys, Patti D'Arbanville, and Karl Lagerfeld. Note that virtually all of the other Andy Warhol movies of the 1960s and 1970s have numerous posters available on them, but for some reason, this one apparently received an incredibly tiny U.S. release! We have previously auctioned the French one-panel and Dutch stills, and we have auctioned a single U.S. poster (with ratings, so it is not "international"), so obviously this movie DID receive a U.S. release, but it was apparently a very limited one! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that, as noted above, the poster offered here is the absolute only U.S. one-sheet (or U.S. movie paper of any kind) that we have ever seen from this movie. It likely qualifies as the most rare Andy Warhol one-sheet, by a wide margin! Note that all but 28 of the folded one-sheets in this Part I of eMoviePoster.com's December Major Auction were consigned to us by legendary French dealer/collector Dominique Besson. Dominique Besson started collecting movie posters in 1981, and became a dealer in French and European posters in 1994, and has remained as a top dealer ever since! But in addition, 30 years ago, Dominique began collecting U.S. one-sheets, first those with Saul Bass art, and then adding Alfred Hitchcock posters, then Humphrey Bogart, and he finally ended up collecting in an amazing total of 47 different categories, purchasing the posters from all over the world! Now the time has come to sell this wonderful collection, and Dominique has chosen eMoviePoster.com to do so, through our auctions! As noted above, all but 28 of the folded one-sheets in this Part I come from this more remarkable collection (the 28 that do not were consigned to us by other collectors, and are clearly marked). This is not all of the Dominique Besson collection we are auctioning. In addition, there are approximately 200 more folded one-sheets that will be in Part IV of this special auction (ones from the 1970s to present), and there are approximately 100 unfolded one-sheets that will be in Part III (including many great ones). This is a very rare opportunity to purchase folded one-sheets (all of which have had no professional restoration) from one of the greatest one-sheet collections assembled! Note that this one-sheet is from the category that Dominique Besson collected on that he labeled "Exploitation". Condition: very good to fine. The poster has a few faint creases and is otherwise in wonderful condition! Learn More about condition grades
