Auction History Result 7x242 MAN BAIT linen 1sh '52 best full-length image of bad girl Diana Dors in her underwear! Date Sold 6/7/2015 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) The Last Page (released in the U.S. as "Man Bait"), the 1952 Terence Fisher English romantic crime bad girl film noir ("The Cards are Stacked... against any man who falls for her kind of Man Bait"; "Looking for a date?... Go easy! She's 'Man Bait'"; "Blonde Blackmail!"; "Look if you like... but Look Out! She's Man Bait"; "Screenplay by Frederick Knott from an original story by James Hadley Chase") starring George Brent, Marguerite Chapman, Diana Dors (billed as "introducing Diana Dors"), Raymond Huntley, and Peter Reynolds. Note that there are a couple of interesting oddities about this movie. One is that it was director Terence Fisher's very first movie (he would go on to become very famous for his Hammer horror movies). The other is that, for the American release, it says "introducing Diana Dors", but she had appeared in a dozen movies prior to this, so that was very misleading, to say the least. Finally, note that while this was an English movie, we have never auctioned anything from that English release (with the title "The Last Page"), so we list it under its American title, because it is far better known by that title.

The poster had small paper loss at the crossfolds and a tiny bit of paper loss in the vertical fold just above the red box. It had two small areas of paper loss in the top quarter of the vertical fold and minor wear on the rest of the folds and in the borders. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well! Learn More about condition grades
