A 1960 Re-release Vintage Theatrical Paperbacked Spanish Forty by Sixty Movie Poster (measures 40" x 60") (Learn More) Alfred Hitchcock's Rear Window, the classic 1954 Alfred Hitchcock (nominated for the Best Director Academy Award for this film) thriller ("The master of suspense brings you his masterpiece!"; "Based on the short story by Cornell Woolrich"; "Screenplay by John Michael Hayes"; about a man who breaks his leg and is forced to stay at his home until he's better; during this time he observes his neighbors and does some voyeuristic detective work) starring James Stewart (Jimmy Stewart; as Jeff), Grace Kelly (as Lisa), Wendell Corey (as Detective Lt. Doyle), Thelma Ritter (as Stella), Raymond Burr (as Lars Thorwald), Judith Evelyn (as Miss Lonelyhearts), Georgine Darcy (as Miss Torso), Jesslyn Fax (as Miss Hearing Aid), Rand Harper, Havis Davenport (Harper and Davenport played the "newlyweds"), and Ross Bagdasarian (as the "Songwriter").

It would be three more years before his big break in 1957, when he became TV's "Perry Mason"! 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 this poster has been paperbacked. This means the poster was backed onto a heavy Japanese rice paper (acid-free). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, and window cards. Also note that this poster was printed in the United States for use at theaters with Spanish speaking audiences. NOTE THAT THIS POSTER WAS MADE WITH A REALLY INTERESTING "GIMMICK"! There is a "window shade" at the top of the poster which can be "opened" (by lifting it up) under which is the re-release tagline, "if your nerves can stand it after Psycho". We have put two photographs of the poster below to try to illustrate how the shade works. But note, of course, that we are only selling one (1) poster! Condition: very good. it appears that prior to paperbacking the poster was folded and had creases and small tears along many folds, as well as some small stains and smudges throughout. The poster was well restored, and these defects have been greatly minimized (but you can see them from very close up). Learn More about condition grades
