Cain"; about a woman trapped in a loveless marriage who gets a drifter to kill her husband, and it seems like they will get away with it, but will they?) starring Lana Turner, John Garfield, Cecil Kellaway, Hume Cronyn, Leon Ames, Audrey Totter, and Alan Reed. Note that this movie was re-made in 1981 by Bob Rafelson, starring Jack Nicholson and Jessica Lange 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: good to very good. The poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds. It had a series of tiny tears and just a few small areas of paper loss scattered down the vertical foldline (and someone had once put tape on the back of most of that fold). There was a 6" slightly diagonal tear or cut running through Turner's eye and the middle of her nose and into the middle right of her hair (a clean tear, with no paper loss). There were some pinholes, tiny tears, and tiny bits of paper loss in the blank borders and some scuffs in the solid black areas. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects (although the tear or cut in Turner's face is NOT noticeable at all, except on the closest inspection). The poster can be displayed and enjoyed just as it is, or certainly a talented restorer could re-back the poster and afterward, it would display perfectly! Learn More about condition grades
