An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Thirty by Forty Movie Poster (30x40; measures 30" x 40" [76 x 102 cm]) (Learn More)

Alfred Hitchcock's North by Northwest, the classic 1959 Alfred Hitchcock New York City South Dakota romantic crime suspense thriller ("The Master of Suspense weaves his greatest tale... about a secret that nobody knew... a man who never existed... and a love affair that began in an upper berth - and ended in screaming death!"; "From the killer plane in the cornfield to the cliff-hanger on George Washington's nose, it's suspense in every direction!"; "The master of suspense spins his greatest tale"; "A train may be an old-fashioned way to travel, but an upper berth can be a lovely way to go - When It's Your Time To Go......"; "Breathless excitement that races from glittering Manhattan to the great stone faces of Mt. Rushmore!"; "Written by Ernest Lehman") starring Cary Grant, Eva Marie Saint, James Mason, Jessie Royce Landis, Leo G. Carroll, Martin Landau, Edward Platt, and Phillip Ober

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this Thirty by Forty, which has the same image as the one-sheet, but whereas that poster is black and red only with a white background, this poster is full-color and has a much more striking yellow and green background, so this is MUCH more desirable, but it is so rare that most collectors have never had a chance to purchase it (until now)!

Condition: good to very good. There are smudges and stains scattered in all the yellow background areas and some in the green background. There is a 1" tear near the center of the right border and a pinhole in each corner, with tiny tears and creases in the top edge of the top blank border, and a lesser amount in the bottom edge of the bottom blank border. In spite of the above defects (which are primarily in the green and yellow background areas), we would think most collectors could happily display this ultra rare poster as it is, or certainly restoration could be performed.
