The Lady from Shanghai, the 1947 Orson Welles Asian China romantic crime film noir ("'Do all rich women play games like this?'"; "'I told you... You know nothing about wickedness.'"; "I didn't want money... she knew that when I went to work for her!"; "Soon everyone will know the Lady from Shanghai - Be sure to meet her!"; "Exciting story of a reckless & notorious woman of the world!"; "Story of a reckless woman!"; "Screenplay and Production by Orson Welles"; about an ordinary seaman who sees a beautiful woman on a yacht and gets a job on it so he can be near her, and he ends up involved in a complicated murder plot) starring Rita Hayworth, Orson Welles, Everett Sloane, Glenn Anders, Ted de Corsia, and Evelyn Ellis. Note that director/star Orson Welles was married to Rita Hayworth, and he co-wrote this screenplay as a way for him to star opposite her! Also note that this movie was originally filmed in 1946, but it was not released in the U.S. at that time. It was finally released in France in December 1947, and at that time, U.S. posters were printed with 1947 NSS numbers, but it did not finally open in the U.S. until 1948!

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. Each of the sections of the poster had tiny paper loss at some crossfolds, and some tears and tiny areas of paper loss on parts of some foldlines. There were some pinholes around the edges of the poster and a few within the image. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well!
