An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Ernest Hemingway's To Have and Have Not, the classic 1944 Howard Hawks World War II (WWII) romantic suspense melodrama ("Humphrey Bogart... with his kind of woman in a powerful adaptation of Ernest Hemingway's most daring man-woman story!"; very loosely adapted from the classic story by Ernest Hemingway, "Screen Play by Jules Furthman and William Faulkner"; "If you want anything mister, ...just whistle!"; "It happens this way.."; "In love with his kind of woman!"; this was the movie where middle-aged Humphrey Bogart met 19 year old Lauren Bacall, and won her romantically, both on and off the screen) starring Humphrey Bogart, Walter Brennan, Lauren Bacall (in her very first movie role!), Hoagy Carmichael, Sheldon Leonard, Dan Seymour, Dolores Moran, Marcel Dalio, and Walter Sande. Note that this movie was not very faithful to Ernest Hemingway's story. Just six years later, Warner Bros. remade the movie with John Garfield and Patricia Neal, and this time they were more faithful to the story. Finally, note that there is a story that has circulated for many decades that male singer Andy Williams dubbed Lauren Bacall's voice for her song in this movie! Many people say this is absolutely an urban legend, and that Williams did record the song, but Howard Hawks decided to go with Lauren Bacall's version instead, and Bacall herself said it was definitely her singing, but there is no stopping an urban legend!

Important Added Info: Note that we have only previously auctioned four examples of this first release one-sheet, and the last one was 10 years ago! Also note that Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall only appeared in four movies together, and remarkably, we are currently auctioning one-sheets from each of those four movies, in four separate auctions (and even more remarkably, they were consigned to us by three different consignors). This is a very rare opportunity to purchase any or all of these four posters, which are each rarely auctioned! What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. Someone trimmed off 1" from the top and bottom blank borders, and 1/4" from the left and right blank borders, but only blank white paper was affected. The poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and some creases and tiny bits of paper loss on parts of some folds, with some pinholes around the edges and a few scattered in the image. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was well backed, and the restorer did a nice job replacing the missing portions of the blank borders on each side, and it will display well on the new owner's wall!
