Auction History Result 1y0872 SOME LIKE IT HOT 1sh 1959 sexy Marilyn Monroe with Tony Curtis & Jack Lemmon in drag! Date Sold 4/12/2022 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Some Like It Hot, the classic 1959 Billy Wilder (nominated for the Best Director Academy Award for this film) romantic musical cross-dressing drag crime comedy ("Hot!!!"; about two out of work musicians who happen to witness the St. Valentine's Day Massacre in Chicago, and they need to leave town in a hurry, but the only jobs they can get is with an all-girl band, and they dress in drag, and one of the band members is Marilyn Monroe!) starring Marilyn Monroe ("and her bosom companions"), Tony Curtis, Jack Lemmon (nominated for the Best Actor Academy Award for this film), George Raft, Pat O'Brien, and Joe E. Brown (the great star of 1920s and 1930s slapstick comedy, who practically steals this movie with a wonderful comic performance and an unforgettable final line!) 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 there are two different "original" versions of this one-sheet. They are incredibly similar, EXCEPT one has a 1959 copyright date in the lower left corner, and the other has a 1960 copyright date. That second version has slightly smaller type in the bottom copyright information than the 1959 version, and the words "All Rights Reserved" have been inserted to the left of "Country of Origin U.S.A." LOOKING VERY CLOSELY AT THE TWO POSTERS, IT SEEMS VERY CLEAR THAT THE PRINTING QUALITY OF THE TWO POSTERS IS INCREDIBLY SIMILAR. However, we are certain there are some collector "purists" who would only want the "1959" version and not the "1960" version, so know that THIS poster is the one with the 1959 copyright date (in case you prefer owning that version!). Condition: very good. The poster has light fold and border wear with a few light creases scattered in various areas. It has a light somewhat diagonal crease to the right of the center of the vertical foldline (between the top crossfold and bottom crossfold). There is tiny separation at the bottom crossfold. The poster was likely touched by an object while folded that has caused some faint indentations in a vertical line at right (the one at upper right is somewhat more noticeable in an area of blank red paper - see our image - but the four areas are overall not very noticeable or distracting when the poster is displayed). The poster is otherwise in pretty nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
