An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Three-Sheet Movie Poster (3sh; measures 41" x 81" [104 x 206 cm]) (Learn More) Elsa Maxwell's Hotel for Women, the 1939 Gregory Ratoff romantic melodrama ("Elsa says: 'Don't ever shoot a man, dears! He's worth more to you alive than dead!'"; "Elsa says: 'Girls Do depend on men [the dogs!] ...some for excitement ... some for fame... and some even for love!'"; "A girl in every room ..and a man on every mind!"; "Based on a story by Elsa Maxwell and Kathryn Scola"; produced by Darryl F. Zanuck) starring Linda Darnell, James Ellison, Ann Sothern, Elsa Maxwell, John Halliday, Lynn Bari, Katharine Aldridge, Alan Dinehart, Jean Rogers, June Gale, Joyce Compton, and Amanda Duff. Note that 20th Century-Fox hired famous pin-up artists McClelland Barclay, George Petty, Bradshaw Crandell, and John LaGatta to create the one-sheet, three-sheet and half-sheets (and the lookalike title card) for this movie. Each featured great pin-up art of a sexy girl (none look like the actresses in the movie, but nobody minded!). They advertised it this way: "When these artists paint a girl, the whole world stops to LOOK! Petty, John La Gatta, McClelland Barclay, Bradshaw Crandell ...and each has created a striking figure especially for your 'Hotel For Women' campaign!" NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Bradshaw Crandell Important Added Info: Note that this three-sheet has the same striking sexy pin-up art by Bradshaw Crandell, which is on the half-sheet, but it is completely different from the pin-up art on the one-sheet. We have seen several examples of the one-sheet, but we have never seen or heard of this great three-sheet before! Also note that this three-sheet was printed in 2 sections designed to overlap. Condition: good to very good. There is some darkening on the back of the part of the poster that was on the outside when it was fully folded. There are some creases and several tears along the foldlines that were on the outside when the poster was fully folded. There are some creases, smudges, and tiny tears on some foldlines, as well as some separation, and some tiny paper loss at some crossfolds. Someone put some white tape on the back of part of the foldlines that were on the outside when the poster was fully folded. As it stands, the poster is somewhat fragile, but it is "all there" and after linenbacking by a talented professional, the poster will look great, and will need little paint restoration within the image.
