An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Style A Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More)

The Lavender Hill Mob, the classic 1951 Charles Crichton English Ealing crime comedy ("Your biggest laugh in years!"; "Meet the Boss!") starring Alec Guinness (nominated for the Best Actor Academy Award for this film; "versatile star of 'Kind Hearts and Coronets'"), Stanley Holloway, Sidney James, Alfie Bass, Marjorie Fielding, and Audrey Hepburn (referred to as a "lovely newcomer" in some of the original advertising, in her first real role as Chiquita, after two extremely minor roles)

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare poster! We have never auctioned one in all our years of auctioning. Note that this poster has never been folded! Some pre-1970 half-sheet posters were folded twice horizontally at the poster exchange, while some were not. It can be difficult to find an unfolded example of many pre-1970 half-sheet posters (note that most post-1970 half-sheets were NOT folded, so they are pretty much only found unfolded, and therefore this does not apply to those half-sheets).

Condition: good. The poster has paper loss at lower left and a few significant tears of varying lengths around the edges (see our image). Certainly the poster could be restored and paperbacked and it would look great, but please bear in mind its defects and cost of restoration before placing a bid.
