An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (measures 27" x 41") (Learn More) William Wyler's Friendly Persuasion, the 1956 William Wyler (nominated for the Best Director Academy Award for this film) Civil War military family melodrama ("It Will Pleasure You in a Hundred Ways!"; "In gorgeous color"; "Gary Cooper's best since 'High Noon'"; "A great star and a new star make 'Friendly Persuasion'!"; "The world's most talked - about motion picture!"; "From the Book by Jessamyn West"; "Hear Pat Boone"; nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award; about a family of Quakers who are opposed to violence, and how they deal with the Civil War raging around them; to me, Gary Cooper was mis-cast in this role!) starring Gary Cooper ("in the towering role that tops even his 'High Noon', brings you the sensational new star..."), Dorothy McGuire, Richard Eyer (billed as "Featuring Richard Eyer"), Robert Middleton, Phyllis Love, Peter Mark Richman (billed as "Mark Richman"), Walter Catlett, Marjorie Main (billed as "The Widow Hudspeth"), and Anthony Perkins (nominated for the Best Supporting Actor Academy Award for this film; billed as "Introducing the most exciting new star since James Dean... Anthony Perkins") NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: good to very good. The poster had creases and tears in the center half of the vertical foldline, and minor wear on the other folds. There were pinholes in the corners. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. At some point after linenbacking, the bottom left corner of the image was water stained in a circular area at the bottom of the bottom left inset image, which left a brown water stain in an outline around the edges of the stained area, and made the poster "lift" from the linen in that area. I don't know how difficult it would be to repair this, or if it could be done without re-backing the poster. Please do not bid on this poster unless you have clearly read the above and can accept this significant defect! Learn More about condition grades
