Auction History Result 6z0852 GUN CRAZY 1/2sh 1950 Joseph H. Lewis noir classic, bad notorious Peggy Cummins, ultra rare! Date Sold 8/1/2024 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More) Gun Crazy, the 1950 Joseph H. Lewis bad girl crime film noir ("Thrill crazy... Kill crazy..."; "The Flaming Life of Laurie Starr [the lethal blonde]"; "...her violent loves! ...her vicious crimes! ...her wild escapes!"; "Notorious Laurie Starr! ...wanted in a dozen states... hunted by the F.B.I.!"; "She was more than any man could handle!"; "From The Saturday Evening Post Story by MacKinlay Kantor") starring Peggy Cummins, John Dall, Berry Kroeger, Russ Tamblyn, and Don Beddoe. Note that in 1949 Joseph H. Lewis had released this movie as "Deadly Is the Female". In 1950 he re-titled this movie "Gun Crazy" and gave it a full-scale release under that name. There are posters of all sizes and lobby cards for both titles (which is why we list them as two separate titles), and the "Gun Crazy" paper has never been called a "re-release" within the hobby, although technically it is.

Important Added Info: Note that we have only auctioned one example of this "notorious style" half-sheet poster, and it sold for $898! Also note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: good. The poster had tears around the edges with small paper loss in the middle of the left blank border. Someone put clear tape on the front and back of many of the border tears, and some of it yellowed and fell off, and some of it has yellowed and remained. There is one in the top left and one in the top right that extends into the image background but the rest are in the blank borders. The poster has minor wear on both folds. Obviously it can be restored, and since the restoration will primarily be in the blank borders it will display really well, but bear the above in mind before bidding.
