Rodgers and Hammerstein's The Sound of Music, the classic 1965 Robert Wise (winner of the Best Director Academy Award for this film) family musical (from the hit Broadway play by Rodgers & Hammerstein; "The happiest sound in all the world"; winner of the Best Picture Academy Award) starring Julie Andrews (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film; as Maria), Christopher Plummer (as Captain Von Trapp), Richard Haydn (as Max Detweiler), Peggy Wood (nominated for the Best Supporting Actress Academy Award for this film; as Mother Abbess), Charmian Carr (as Liesl), Heather Menzies (as Louisa), Angela Cartwright (as Brigitta), The Bil Baird Marionettes, Eleanor Parker ("as The Baroness"), Duane Chase (as Kurt), Daniel Truhitte (as Rolfe), Nicholas Hammond, Debbie Turner, and Kym Karath

Artist: Howard Terpning
Important Added Info: Note that "pre-awards" one-sheets have a tagline at the top (in a black box) that reads "The happiest sound in all the world". While still in continuous first release and after it won 5 Academy Awards in 1965, new one-sheets were printed and that top tagline was replaced with "Winner of 5 Academy Awards Including The 'Best Picture Of Year'". The poster offered here is the pre-Awards one-sheet, which is much more desired by collectors. Some pre-awards one-sheets credit Todd-AO (below the guitar and above "Color by Deluxe"), and others do not. The ones that do not were created for theaters that could not show the 70mm Todd-AO version.

Condition: very good to fine. The poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds, pinholes in the corners, and minor fold and border wear. Overall, the poster was in very good to fine condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was well backed, and looks great!
