An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Rosemary's Baby, the classic 1968 Roman Polanski horror thriller ("Rosemary... Guy... The Bramford... The girl... The dead girl... The neighbors... The friend... The dead friend... The nightmare... The doctor... The vicious nightmare... The other doctor... The truth... The baby... Poor baby... Whose baby?... Pray for Rosemary's baby!"; "Eerie, spine-tingling suspense to scare the yell out of you"; "The bizarre, occult world of devilology, black magic and witchcraft."; "If you believe, no explanation is necessary."; "If you don't believe, no explanation is possible!"; about a woman who fears for her baby because of all the strange things going on around her in her apartment building; produced by William Castle; "From the novel by Ira Levin") starring Mia Farrow (in the title role as Rosemary Woodhouse), John Cassavetes, Ruth Gordon (nominated for the Best Supporting Actress Academy Award for this film), Sidney Blackmer, Maurice Evans, Ralph Bellamy, Tony Curtis, Charles Grodin (in his second credited movie role!), Hope Summers, and Elisha Cook Jr. 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 we have only seen this style of poster from this movie once before! There is no printer information at the bottom and there is no NSS stamp on the back. It is possible that this may be a rejected teaser because of the upside-down cross image (which is quite offensive to some). It is also possible it is from another country (but it is unmarked, if it is). If anyone knows more about this poster, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Note that all but 28 of the folded one-sheets in this Part I of eMoviePoster.com's December Major Auction were consigned to us by legendary French dealer/collector Dominique Besson. Dominique Besson started collecting movie posters in 1981, and became a dealer in French and European posters in 1994, and has remained as a top dealer ever since! But in addition, 30 years ago, Dominique began collecting U.S. one-sheets, first those with Saul Bass art, and then adding Alfred Hitchcock posters, then Humphrey Bogart, and he finally ended up collecting in an amazing total of 47 different categories, purchasing the posters from all over the world! Now the time has come to sell this wonderful collection, and Dominique has chosen eMoviePoster.com to do so, through our auctions! As noted above, all but 28 of the folded one-sheets in this Part I come from this more remarkable collection (the 28 that do not were consigned to us by other collectors, and are clearly marked). This is not all of the Dominique Besson collection we are auctioning. In addition, there are approximately 200 more folded one-sheets that will be in Part IV of this special auction (ones from the 1970s to present), and there are approximately 100 unfolded one-sheets that will be in Part III (including many great ones). This is a very rare opportunity to purchase folded one-sheets (all of which have had no professional restoration) from one of the greatest one-sheet collections assembled! Note that this one-sheet is from the category that Dominique Besson collected on that he labeled "Fantastic" (1970s and later horror/sci-fi). Condition: very good. There is tiny paper loss in the upper crossfold. It is otherwise in pretty nice condition. Learn More about condition grades
