Auction History Result #494 MARKED WOMAN 1sh R47 Bette Davis, Bogart Date Sold 7/23/2002Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. R47 Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (27" x 41") (Learn More) Marked Woman, the 1937 Lloyd Bacon & Michael Curtiz bad girl prostitution crime murder thriller ("A Star Teaming You'll Never Forget!!!"; "The Kind Ladies Don't Talk To!"; "Meet the girls who got caught in a racket!"; "You work the way I tell you, or else!"; about a "party girl", whose sister is murdered, and a crusading DA convinces her to testify against the gangsters who killed her sister) starring Bette Davis, Humphrey Bogart, Lola Lane, Isabel Jewell, Eduardo Ciannelli, Jane Bryan, Rosalind Marquis, Mayo Methot (who was married Bogart in real life the year after this movie, and they stayed married until he left her for Lauren Bacall), Allen Jenkins, John Litel, Ben Welden, Henry O'Neill, and Raymond Hatton. Note that after the Production Code was instituted, references to prostitution had to be carefully disguised, and Davis' character was described as a "hostess" in a club run by gangsters, but everyone watching the movie knew what she really did for a living! Also note that this was one of the many movies Humphrey Bogart made after his great success of "The Petrified Forest" in 1936. But even though he got second billing in this movie, Warner Bros. did not see him as having strong box office appeal, and they left him off most of the posters, focusing on "bad" Bette Davis! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that when this movie was first released, Davis was top billed and Bogart is barely even mentioned (and not pictured on any of the posters). By 1947, his star had risen considerably, and so he was given equal billing with Davis and an equal sized image! Condition: good to very good. There is lots of dirt smudging in the title and credits area. Some of the smudging extends into the bottom corner of Bogie's face but it really isn't noticeable. There is some minor separation at each crossfold. There are minor creases Learn More about condition grades
