An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Style B Half-Sheet Movie Poster (measures 22" x 28") (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. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster, unlike the one-sheet, does not have the awful "red lips" on Bogart that make the one-sheet so unappealing to so many collectors. This is a very rare poster (I have never seen it or sold it before)! Also note that this poster was machine folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: very good. There is a large corrective credits snipe over the original credits area (the primary difference is that originally, Howard Hawks' name was the same size as that of the actors above him, but in the new credits, his name is even larger than "Warner Bros."!). There are a few creases and faint smudges in the stars' images, most notably a fine 1" scuff mark in the middle of Bogart's nose. The poster has creases, smudges, and a few faint stains around the edges of the poster and a few creases along the foldlines. There are a few creases around the edges of the poster. There are some smudges and tiny stains in the white background areas. Someone put two tiny pieces of white conservation tape on the back of two tears near the center of the top blank border, but otherwise, this poster has had no restoration whatsoever. It will display quite nicely just as it is, or any talented restorer could surely paperback this poster and make it look "perfect" and there would be little paint restoration anywhere in the image.
