An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Funny Face, the 1957 Stanley Donen New York City Paris France romantic musical comedy ("Presented in a real new dimension in motion picture entertainment."; "Written by Leonard Gershe"; "Music and Lyrics George & Ira Gershwin"; "Choreography by Eugene Loring & Fred Astaire"; Hepburn is a worker in a bookstore who is discovered by a much older Fred Astaire) starring Audrey Hepburn, Fred Astaire, Kay Thompson, Michel Auclair, Robert Flemyng, and Dovima 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 tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and fine surface paper loss on parts of some foldlines. There was a fine vertical scuff line running from above the center of the full-length Hepburn image down through her face and ending at her waist. There were numbers on the back of the center of the top border that bled through to the front and several pinholes in the corners. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to linenbacking. Someone mounted the poster onto linen and rice paper, but did not perform any restoration to the above defects. It was simply cut from the stretcher, and there is lots of excess linen around the edges. I would think a restorer could perform restoration to the above defects without re-backing it.
