Auction History Result m047 STALAG 17 linen one-sheet movie poster '53 William Holden, Wilder Date Sold 5/30/2006Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (measures 27" x 41") (Learn More) Stalag Seventeen, the classic 1953 Billy Wilder (nominated for the Best Director Academy Award for this film) World War II (WWII) military prisoner-of-war (POW) comedy ("The star-spangled laugh-loaded salute to our P.W. heroes!"; "'Stalag 17'...The address - of a prisoner of war camp!"; "Based on the play by Donald Bevan and Edmund Trzcinski") starring William Holden (winner of the Best Actor Academy Award for this film; as Sefton), Don Taylor (as Lt. Dunbar), Otto Preminger (as the German commandant Col. Von Scherbach), Robert Strauss (in his nominated for Best Supporting Actor Academy Award role as Stanislas Kasava), Harvey Lembeck, Richard Erdman, Peter Graves (as Price), Neville Brand, and Sig Ruman (as the German Sgt. Schulz). Can anyone tell me how or why actor Don Taylor was given second billing in this movie? He did not have a major part at all! If anyone knows, please e-mail us and we will post it here. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: good. The poster had paper loss at the crossfolds and a series of tiny tears and very tiny areas of paper loss in the vertical foldline. There were some smudges and tears on the horizontal foldlines and some creases, tears, and small areas of paper loss in the blank borders. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to linenbacking. The person who backed the poster airbrushed some of the solid blue background areas (and some of the white area in the right of the bottom foldline), and those areas of airbrushing are somewhat noticeable. That restoration is solely in the solid areas, and if I owned this poster, I would likely have a restorer perform additional restoration to those areas, either with or without re-backing the poster.
