Auction History Result 1s075 CARPETBAGGERS int'l 6sh '64 great close up of Carroll Baker biting George Peppard's hand! Date Sold 4/21/2011 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Tri-Folded International Six-Sheet Movie Poster (6sh; measures 81" x 81" [206 x 206 cm]) (Learn More) The Carpetbaggers, the 1964 Edward Dmytryk fictional biographical millionaire tycoon melodrama ("It is unlikely that you will experience in a lifetime all that you will see in... The Carpetbaggers"; "This is adult entertainment!"; "Based on the novel 'The Carpetbaggers' by Harold Robbins"; obviously based on the life of Howard Hughes, but taking great liberties with the facts and small details of his life!) starring George Peppard (as Jason Cord), Alan Ladd (as Nevada Smith; in his final movie role), Robert Cummings (billed as "Bob Cummings"), Martha Hyer, Elizabeth Ashley, Lew Ayres, Martin Balsam, Ralph Taeger, Archie Moore, and Carroll Baker ("as Rina" Marlowe). Note that Alan Ladd made such an impression in this movie in his supporting role as Nevada Smith that a "prequel" to this movie was made. It was originally supposed to feature Ladd but his death by an accidental alcohol and barbiturate overdose forced the studio to recast Steve McQueen as the young Nevada Smith!

Important Added Info: Note that this poster was stamped "FOR" which means it was printed for use outside the United States (there would also have been posters stamped "DOM" for use within the United States). Often, the "FOR" posters would have a different (sometimes racier) image than that for the one used in the United States. Also note that this six-sheet was printed in 4 sections. Finally, note this six-sheet poster was tri-folded only (which means there is one less vertical machine fold than usual). This means the poster has a significantly lesser number of folds than with six-sheets folded in the "regular" way, which is nice! Tri-folded six-sheets need to be sent in an oversized flat package, which measures roughly 13" x 30", so they cost more to send than regularly folded six-sheets, especially if they are sent to non-U.S. addresses. Condition: very good to fine. There is some darkening on the back of the part of the poster that was on the outside when it was fully folded, but it has little effect on the front, and otherwise, the poster is in pretty good condition.
