Auction History Result 2c457 MANPOWER Belgian 1948 art of Marlene Dietrich between George Raft & Edward G. Robinson! Date Sold 12/12/2019 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original 1948 (from the first release of this movie in Belgium) Vintage Theatrical Folded Belgian Movie Poster (measures 14 1/2" x 23" [37 x 58 cm]) (Learn More) Manpower, the 1941 Raoul Walsh power-company-road-crew melodrama ("Here's that T.N.T. star-combination that had the news wires sizzling!"; "A Warner Bros. Hit!"; "The Sensational new Warner Bros. hit!"; "TNTrio!"; "All together") starring Edward G. Robinson ("He's mad about Dietrich!"), Marlene Dietrich ("She's mad about Raft!"), George Raft ("He's mad about the whole thing!"), Alan Hale Sr., Frank McHugh, Eve Arden, Walter Catlett, Ward Bond, Joyce Compton, Lucia Carroll, and Barbara Pepper. Note that this was the first time that Robinson and Raft worked together, and they had a very bad relationship on the set, to the point where George Raft physically struck Edward G. Robinson, and Robinson threatened to walk off the picture! Not surprisingly, they only made one more movie together, and that was 14 years later! 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 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 to very good. The poster has darkened somewhat and it has separation in the ends of the center horizontal fold and in the ends of a horizontal crease in the large upper blank area. It has two tears at lower left near the title and one at lower center that extends into the Dutch title. Those tears (and the separation in the ends of the horizontal folds mentioned above) were once backed by tape that bled through to the front, but they have since been covered in conservation tape. There is minor wear along the center horizontal fold. The poster is otherwise in pretty nice condition, and after a pretty simple linenbacking with some proper restoration, it would look fantastic!
