Artist: Bob McCall Important Added Info: Note that the Cinerama posters from this movie are far more rare than those without Cinerama (which makes perfect sense, because it only played in a very limited number of theaters that had the Cinerama capability). We have only auctioned a small number of one-sheets with the Cinerama logo. This is only the second time we have auctioned a 40x60 from the Cinerama release, and it is likely so rare because it was not printed on the heavy paper stock that 40x60s of this period are normally printed on, but instead, it was printed on a paper exactly like that used for one-sheets at this time. The first one we auctioned was not backed, and that one was in "good to very good" condition, and it had never been folded, but it had many creases throughout, and some border damage, and it sold for $3,130. This example (the second one we have ever had) has been professionally linenbacked. It also had never been folded. It had fewer creases than the first example we sold, but it had more border damage (but solely in the blank borders), so it is in approximately the same condition as the earlier example, except it has been professionally backed and is ready to display on the new owner's wall. What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster was never folded. It had some creases scattered in the image. It had some tears and paper loss scattered in parts of the left and right blank borders (most of the paper loss was tiny), and only blank white paper was affected. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well! Learn More about condition grades
