Valley of the Dolls, the classic 1967 Mark Robson show business drug addiction camp thriller ("The all time #1 best-seller... Now a movie"; "In the Valley of the Dolls, it's instant turn-on... dolls to put you to sleep at night, kick you awake in the morning, make life seem great-instant love, instant excitement... ultimate hell!"; "The motion picture that shows what America's all time #1 best seller first put into words!"; "The nation's most startling and hotly discussed best-seller now on the screen with every shock and sensation intact!"; "NEELY O'HARA: ... who was such a nice kid - until they put her name in lights. She took the green pills. Nice kid turned lush!"; "ANNE WELLES:... good girl with a million dollar face - and all the bad breaks. She took the red pills."; "HELEN... who was a gut, fingernail and claw fighter - and went down swinging. She took the yellow pills."; "JENNIFER NORTH: ... International sex symbol - victimized by everyone. She took the blue pills. Sex symbol turned on too often!"; "Based on a Book by Jacqueline Susann"; "Screenplay by Helen Deutsch and Dorothy Kingsley") starring Barbara Parkins, Patty Duke, Paul Burke, Sharon Tate (in her fourth credited movie role), Tony Scotti, Lee Grant, Joey Bishop, George Jessel (Collectively billed as "Guest Stars Joey Bishop and George Jessel"), and Susan Hayward ("as Helen Lawson"). Note that the music for this movie was composed by John Williams (apparently his first real time doing so for a movie), and on the soundtrack CD he is billed as "Johnny Williams"! Note that "everybody" knew that the book was partially loosely based on the life of Judy Garland and other Hollywood stars, but to protect themselves, the producers added a note to the posters that read "The Producers wish to state that any similarity between any person, living or dead, and the characters portrayed in this film, is purely coincidental and not intended."

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: This poster has been professionally linenbacked. It now looks great, and most dealers would describe it as "fine (or mint) on linen". We have noted the defects that were restored below (and feel everyone should always do this!). Many collectors would not be aware of the restoration this poster has had unless it was specifically shown to them!

Condition: fine. The poster was printed in two pieces, but they were expertly linenbacked, and the poster looks wonderful!. Most of the linenbacked posters we sell were restored by the finest professionals. An expertly linenbacked poster will often appear "mint", as its defects have been made to "vanish". We are the only seller we are aware of who always tries to describe the condition of the poster prior to being linenbacked, so you are fully aware of what restoration was performed.
