The Loves of Carmen, the 1948 Charles Vidor Spain doomed-romance romantic gypsy adventure melodrama ("If you're ashamed of me, find another woman... I'm Carmen!"; "The stormy loves of the most celebrated temptress of all time!"; "This is Carmen the talk of the world!"; "A story of beauty and savagery... love and hate... splendor and shame..."; "Based on the novel 'Carmen' by Prosper Merimee"; a remake of the 1927 Raoul Walsh movie with Dolores Del Rio in the title role) starring Rita Hayworth (in the title role as Carmen), Glenn Ford (as Don Jose), Ron Randell, Victor Jory, Luther Adler, Arnold Moss, Joseph Buloff, Margaret Wycherly, and Robert Sidney

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that we have previously auctioned many one-sheets from this movie, but we have only previously auctioned two examples of this Spanish language one-sheet, and the last one was 15 years ago! We are also currently auctioning an English language version in a separate auction.

Note that this one-sheet was printed in the United States for use at theaters with Spanish speaking audiences (this was done most by MGM, starting in the 1930s, but it was done by the other major studios as well, and often the posters would have the exact same image as the English language poster, except the writing would be in Spanish, and on posters from the 1930s and 1940s there would be an added "Toda en Espanol!", meaning "Entirely in Spanish!", printed within the image). Sometimes posters from the 1960s or later will have the word "SPANISH" printed in the bottom border (or sometimes stamped on the back of the poster).

What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good. The poster had many smudges and scuff marks scattered throughout. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but the restorer generally left the scuffs and smudges alone. They are very noticeable from close up, but not as noticeable from a reasonable viewing distance, but bear this in mind before bidding on this poster.
