An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (measures 27" x 41") (Learn More) Chinatown, the classic 1974 Roman Polanski (nominated for the Best Director Academy Award for this film) romantic police corruption crime film noir ("Written by Robert Towne"; nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award) starring Jack Nicholson (nominated for the Best Actor Academy Award for this film), Faye Dunaway (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), John Hillerman, Perry Lopez, Burt Young, John Huston (the famed director in an acting role), Roman Polanski, and Bruce Glover NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Jim Pearsall Condition: good. This poster was linenbacked, but it was either NOT linenbacked by a very talented restorer, OR it was linenbacked many years ago, and has received rough handling over the years, OR it had fairly major defects that were not restorated at all. If it was restored, you can clearly see signs of the restoration even from a distance. This is a poster that would greatly benefit from additional professional restoration. You can tell which of the above is the case for this particular poster by reading our "pre-restoration" description and also by looking at our "super-sized" image of the actual poster (we are the only major auction company we know of that gives accurate detailed pre-restoration information about linenbacked posters to our bidders, but we wish everyone did!). The poster had many creases and smudges around the edges of the poster and many creases and scuffs across the top center of the image and across the bottom foldline. There were also some tears and a circular area of paper loss in the bottom foldline. The poster would benefit from additional restoration, or from being re-linenbacked. Note that the restorer who mounted the poster did not leave any excess linen around the edges of the poster. Learn More about condition grades
