Artist: Howard Terpning Important Added Info: Note that "pre-awards" one-sheets have a tagline at the top (in a black box) that reads "The happiest sound in all the world". While still in continuous first release and after it won 5 Academy Awards in 1965, new one-sheets were printed and that top tagline was replaced with "Winner of 5 Academy Awards Including The 'Best Picture Of Year'". The poster offered here is the pre-Awards one-sheet, which is much more desired by collectors. Some pre-awards one-sheets credit Todd-AO (below the guitar and above "Color by Deluxe"), and others do not. The ones that do not were created for theaters that could not show the 70mm Todd-AO version. What IS linenbacking? Learn More Condition: good to very good. The poster had fine surface paper loss along most foldlines (typical of high-gloss posters of this period), and there were a few creases and tears on parts of some foldlines. There were many horizontal creases in the top left corner of the image background. There were many pinholes, creases, and tears around the edges of the poster. The person who did the restoration put new blank white paper over all the borders to even out the appearance. This is a common technique used by several top restorers. It is done so well that the majority of collectors are not even aware it has been done, and many do not feel it to be a significant detraction (since it is only blank white area). Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but you can see some signs of the restoration of the above defects, especially the area in the top left corner. Learn More about condition grades
