An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Style B One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More)

Richard Llewellyn's How Green Was My Valley, the classic 1941 John Ford (winner of the Best Director Academy Award for this film) Welsh coal mining miner family relationship romantic melodrama ("Deep and bold are their passions! Rich and wild is their humor!"; "Reckless and lusty are their lives! Mighty and eternal is their story!"; "Richard Llewellyn's Prize Novel"; "Produced by Darryl F. Zanuck"; winner of the Best Picture Academy Award) starring Walter Pidgeon, Maureen O'Hara, Donald Crisp (winner of the Best Supporting Actor Academy Award for this film), Anna Lee, Roddy McDowall, Barry Fitzgerald, and Sara Allgood (nominated for the Best Supporting Actress Academy Award for this film). Note that an unusual distinction for this sentimental movie is that it was VERY highly regarded immediately on its release, and it is somewhat notorious for winning the Best Picture Oscar over both "Citizen Kane" and "The Maltese Falcon", among others.

What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had small paper loss at the top two crossfolds and tiny paper loss at the bottom crossfold. It had some separation and small tears on parts of the folds and some paper loss in parts of the left blank border. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well!
