Auction History Result 3a174 NAKED JUNGLE half-sheet '54 romantic close up of Charlton Heston & Eleanor Parker, George Pal Date Sold 12/11/2008 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Paperbacked Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28") (Learn More) The Naked Jungle, the 1954 Byron Haskin army-ants-attack-South-American-coffee-plantation romantic adventure thriller ("The picture about the Marabunta!"; "Produced by George Pal"; "Based on the story 'Leiningen Versus The Ants' by Carl Stephenson") starring Eleanor Parker, Charlton Heston, William Conrad, Abraham Sofaer, and Romo Vincent. Note that when this movie was made, Charlton Heston had had some leading roles, but he was still second billed to Eleanor Parker. But after he made The Ten Commandments, The Big Country, and especially Ben-Hur in 1959, he was a superstar, and this movie was re-released in 1960 with Heston getting top billing (and a giant image on the posters).

This means the poster was backed onto a paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (except somewhat heavier). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards, and lobby cards. Condition: good to very good. The poster was never folded. It had faint creases and scuffs scattered through the image, including in the stars' faces, and creases, smudges, small tears, and surface paper loss in the blank borders. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to paperbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but the paperbacker did not do any restoration to the defects in the blank borders, likely rightfully assuming they will not show when the poster is framed.
