Auction History Result 9g241 PINK PANTHER insert '64 wacky art of Peter Sellers & David Niven by Jack Rickard! Date Sold 8/18/2016 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Paperbacked Insert Movie Poster (measures 14" x 36" [36 x 91 cm]) (Learn More) The Pink Panther, the classic 1963 (released in the U.S. in 1964) Blake Edwards English/U.S. detective mystery crime comedy spoof ("You only live once... so see the Pink Panther twice!!!"; this movie spawned a long running series) starring David Niven, Peter Sellers (as Inspector Clouseau), Robert Wagner, Capucine, Brenda De Banzie, Colin Gordon, Fran Jeffries (billed as "introducing Fran Jeffries"), Claudia Cardinale ("As the Princess"), and featuring a very memorable musical soundtrack by Henry Mancini! Note that, oddly, this movie had premieres in five European countries in December 1963, and then continued to premiere in other countries in early 1964, and finally had its U.S. premiere in March 1964. We have no idea why the producers of the movie took this most unusual releasing strategy. This allowed the producers to make a sequel movie soon after filming on this movie ended, and that sequel, A Shot in the Dark, premiered in the U.S. in June 1964, just three months after this movie first played in the U.S.!

This means the poster was backed onto a paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (except somewhat heavier). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards, and lobby cards. Also note that because this poster was paperbacked onto a thinner paper backing, it COULD be sent rolled, but we would MUCH prefer to send it in a large flat package (because we fear that rolling it, even into a wide tube, would have an excellent change of damaging it, so we will only send it in a tube if the buyer insists, and then they would be responsible for any damage), but otherwise, we will ship it in a large flat package, so bear that expense in mind before bidding on this poster.

Prior to paperbacking, the poster had some extra horizontal folds and some creases and scuffs scattered throughout the poster. It had some pinholes, smudges, and a few tiny areas of paper loss around the edges. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can see signs of the above defects and the restoration of the above defects. Learn More about condition grades
