Date Sold 12/13/2018Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original 1964 (from the first release of this movie in the Czech Republic) Vintage Theatrical Folded Czechoslovakian Movie Poster (measures 22 3/4" x 32 3/4" [58 x 83 cm]) (Learn More) Some Like It Hot, the classic 1959 Billy Wilder (nominated for the Best Director Academy Award for this film) romantic musical cross-dressing drag crime comedy ("Hot!!!"; about two out of work musicians who happen to witness the St. Valentine's Day Massacre in Chicago, and they need to leave town in a hurry, but the only jobs they can get is with an all-girl band, and they dress in drag, and one of the band members is Marilyn Monroe!) starring Marilyn Monroe ("and her bosom companions"), Tony Curtis, Jack Lemmon (nominated for the Best Actor Academy Award for this film), George Raft, Pat O'Brien, and Joe E. Brown (the great star of 1920s and 1930s slapstick comedy, who practically steals this movie with a wonderful comic performance and an unforgettable final line!) NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Vladimir Tesar Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare poster! We have never auctioned one in all our years of auctioning. Note also that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Note that Czech posters are similar to Polish posters, in that they often have wild completely different designs (sometimes unrelated to the movies!), but they are different from Polish posters in two important ways. One is that they come in two sizes, a small one that measures approximately 11x16, and a larger size that measures approximately 23x33 (the same as older Polish posters). The other is that the larger size has always been FAR more difficult to obtain than Polish posters! However, we have just been consigned a wonderful collection of 39 larger Czech posters (assembled over many years by a very advanced collector), and we are currently auctioning them in 39 separate auctions. This is an extremely rare opportunity to obtain many of the best Czech posters, in the larger size! Condition: good to very good. The poster has some light brown dot stains scattered mostly around the edges and at upper center (in a small area of Monroe's forehead just above her right eye). It is otherwise in nice condition and the slight discoloration could be addressed with a relatively simple linenbacking, after which the ultra-rare poster would look and display fantastically!
