That Dance! - you've heard so much about!"; "J.R. in 3D! That's all, Brother!"; "J.R. in 3D! Need we say more?"; "It'll knock Both your eyes out!"; produced by Howard Hughes) starring Jane Russell, Gilbert Roland, Arthur Hunnicutt, Mary McCarty, and Joyce Mackenzie 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 movie was originally in 3-D. The studios created both 3D and 2D posters and lobby cards (the 2-D posters and lobby cards were for theaters that lacked the 3-D equipment). This poster is from the "2-D" release. In the case of this particular movie, the 3-D posters have a large "JR in 3-D" on them, and to fill that space on the 2-D posters, they used the tagline "THAT Picture! THAT Dance! - you've heard so much about!" What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster had small paper loss at the top crossfold and tiny paper loss on the other two crossfolds. It had a few tiny bits of paper loss on parts of some folds, with tiny paper loss near the center of Russell's dress. It had pinholes and a few creases and tears around the edges, and a few pinholes scattered in the image. There were some faint smudges scattered around the edges and in the yellow background areas. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The restorer backed the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did little restoration to the defects described above, but they are really not very distracting (and a talented restorer could touch them up without re-backing the poster).
