DESCRIPTION
From the CineMasterpieces archive.
This is a beautiful example of an original 14" x 36" U.S. insert movie poster issued by the studio when the film was re released in 1949 and meant for theatrical display.
Folded as issued.
National Screen Service (NSS) issued.
These are very difficult to find in any condition.
You will have trouble finding a nicer one.
CONDITION
C8 EXCELLENT
An extremely rare poster. Highly desired by collectors and non collectors. Not in perfect condition. Unrestored.
Originally folded as issued. This poster has two small 1/2" tears on the right border, scattered pin holes, and a small light 1/8" dust shadow on the very bottom right border from when it was previously framed.
These defects won't be noticeable once framed. If you want it to look perfect we can have it restored and paper backed
for you.
Looks beautiful as is! Well preserved.
Normally, inserts were printed in far fewer numbers than one sheets making them much rarer. Sometimes they even sell for more than the one sheet. Collectors love them because they can display two of them in the same space as a one sheet. Usually printed on card stock, studios stopped issuing inserts in the early 1980's.
When buying collectibles it is always wise to buy "the best of the best" as they stand a greater chance of appreciation. This poster is considered to be within that class and is definitely INVESTMENT QUALITY.
BEWARE OF REPRODUCTIONS
There are known reprints and / or reproductions of this poster.
This is NOT a reprint or reproduction poster! It is guaranteed to be a REAL ORIGINAL MOVIE POSTER issued by the studio when the film was
re released
and meant for theatrical display.
We are absolutely certain it is authentic.
Buy with confidence. We have been on eBay since 1998.
Please read all of the information below before purchasing.
Please be advised that over 95% of all Original Movie Posters printed before the mid 1980's were issued FOLDED. This is NOT considered a defect. They were shipped to theaters this way. Vintage rolled posters do exist, however they are extremely rare. We can have any folded poster Linen Backed which will make the fold lines virtually disappear.
Also please note that most movie posters were actually used at the theater, and some will contain slight imperfections such as: writing on the back, pin holes, fold wear, small tears, etc. These are all very common and to be expected, but if they bother you, all these minor flaws can be remedied in the Linen Backing process. Linen Backing preserves and can actually increase the value of a poster. For the most part, any flaws will be fixed and the poster will appear to be in Near Mint condition. For more information about our Linen Backing service please message us through eBay.
We do not always measure all of our posters exactly. Unless otherwise specified, poster measurements quoted above are approximate to the nearest inch. For example, if we say a one sheet poster is 27" x 41" its precise measurements may be closer to 26 3/4" x 40 7/8" (or something similar). This slight variance is quite common for all original movie posters.
BEWARE OF "FAKE" MOVIE POSTERS!
There are fakes, bootlegs, reprints, and reproductions of almost every popular movie poster. WE DO NOT SELL THESE AS ORIGINALS LIKE OTHERS DO! There are many unscrupulous dealers who successfully pass off these posters as originals. They have been doing it for years! These fakes are almost indistinguishable from originals, only experts can tell. Many who buy them don't know they have been taken. They only discover years later when they sell them that they are worthless. Most are from popular movies from the 70's and 80’s, but there are also really old ones and relatively new ones as well. They usually appear in insert size 14" x 36" and one sheet size 27" x 41". Again, all we can say is BEWARE!
GRADING & CONDITION
We grade our posters according to the Iguide Universal 10-Point Movie Poster Grading Scale. Almost all of our inventory is graded at least C8 Excellent or better.
C10 Mint
- Investment quality. No perceptible flaws of any kind.
C9 Near Mint
- Investment quality. Minor flaw on an otherwise unused poster.
C8 Excellent
- Investment quality. A few minor defects. Pin holes, small tears, etc.
C7 Very Good to Excellent - Fine. Several defects. Still a very nicely preserved item.
C6 Very Good - The typical used poster in average condition. Several defects.
C5 Good to Very Good - A heavily-worn item.
C4 Good - Below average but still suitable for display.
C3 Fair - Heavily worn, but yet still complete.
C2 Poor to Fair - An extremely worn, possibly even incomplete item.
C1 Poor - The lowest grade, representing items in the lowest possible condition.
Some of our posters are "between grades". For example, a C8-C9 poster will contain all the qualities/characteristics of a Near Mint C9 except for one or two very minor flaws that we believe prevent it from being a true C9.
SHIPPING
NO EXTRA CHARGE FOR COMBINED SHIPPING
It is usually possible to ship folded and rolled posters together in one package by rolling the folded ones and shipping them all in one tube. Sometimes it isn't possible to do this. Sometimes we can't roll a folded poster. If this is the case then we must split your wins/purchases into two separate packages and you will be charged for a second shipment.
All wins/purchases must be paid for within 7 days.
We offer either USPS Express or Priority Mail Shipping.
WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND USPS EXPRESS MAIL FOR SHIPMENTS OUTSIDE THE U.S.A.
BULLETPROOF PACKAGING
We only use the strongest packaging materials available. We guarantee your purchase will arrive safely and undamaged.
Folded posters are placed in a plastic bag between STRONG pieces of cardboard and then in a shipping box. Rolled posters are put into a plastic sleeve and then placed in a HEAVY-DUTY thick walled 3" or 4" diameter plastic tube. We roll the poster into a smaller diameter than the tube. This is VERY IMPORTANT because it gives the edges strength and helps to prevent them from getting wrinkled. We add soft cushioning material on the ends to prevent them from getting damaged. We stamp “FRAGILE: DO NOT BEND” on the outside of the package.
NON U.S. CUSTOMERS
WE WILL NO LONGER SHIP FIRST CLASS INTERNATIONAL AIRMAIL WITHOUT INSURANCE
Our experience has shown that packages shipped this way can easily get lost and/or sometimes take several weeks to arrive.
RETURN POLICY
We have an open and easy return policy so you can buy from us with confidence. In the unlikely event you are unhappy with your purchase, please notify us immediately. You may return an item for any reason within 30 days of receiving it for a full refund. You must notify us before sending it back. Item must be in the same condition as originally sent to you and returned to us with our bulletproof packaging materials or return policy does not apply.
If you buy a non linen backed poster and choose to have us linen back it for you, the poster is not returnable for a refund. It is however returnable for FULL CREDIT towards the purchase of other posters from us.
