An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Stanley Kramer's The Men, the 1950 Fred Zinnemann post-World War II (WWII) romantic hospital doctor paralyzed veteran rehabilitation melodrama ("A completely new experience between men and women!..."; "More punch than 'Champion' more guts than 'Home of the Brave'"; "from the producer who dares to make pictures as they've never been made before..."; "Story and Screenplay by Carl Foreman"; "Produced by Stanley Kramer"; about a paralyzed veteran who cannot cope with his injury from World War II) starring Marlon Brando (in his very first movie!), Teresa Wright, Everett Sloane, Jack Webb, Richard Erdman, Virginia Farmer, Dorothy Tree, and Howard St. John. Note that United Artists was panic-stricken at the thought of promoting a movie about a paralyzed man (even though he was a World War II veteran), and so they promoted the movie with an image of Brando shown from the waist up (so you couldn't see his wheelchair!), and the really vague and bizarre tagline, "a completely new experience between men and women!". NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: good. The poster is somewhat brittle and there is much separation and some tearing along the top and bottom quarters of the vertical fold. There are some tiny sticky areas on the front of the poster and one must be careful when unfolding it. There are some minor creases and smudges scattered throughout the poster, but they are not very noticeable or distracting. The poster is otherwise in generally nice condition and after it is restored it will display nicely with very little paint restoration needed! Learn More about condition grades
