An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Window Card Movie Poster (WC; measures 14" x 22" [36 x 56 cm]) (Learn More) Hold Back the Dawn, the 1941 Mitchell Leisen romantic love triangle sham marriage melodrama ("Written by Charles Brackett and Billy Wilder from a story by Ketti Frings"; nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award; about a Romanian gigolo who marries a naive American woman, to get his citizenship, planning on dumping her and re-joining his girlfriend, but then he falls in love with her!) starring Charles Boyer, Olivia de Havilland (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), Paulette Goddard, Victor Francen, and Walter Abel. Note that both Olivia De Havilland and her sister, Joan Fontaine, were nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award in 1942, and Fontaine won for her performance in Suspicion. This further strained an already tenuous relationship between the sisters, and they never reconciled before Fontaine's death in 2013! 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 window card was never folded. Often window cards would be folded across the middle, because that would make them 11" x 14", and they could then be sent with standard folded posters. Most collectors put an added value on a window card that has never been folded. Condition: fair to good. There are many small tears and small areas of paper loss around the edges of the card and paper loss in the "D" of "HOLD" of the title and another one in De Havilland's hair. There are some dot water stains scattered throughout the card with much water staining in the top right corner, and the card is fragile. Please do not bid on this card unless you can accept its defects described above or are willing to pay to have them properly restored. Learn More about condition grades
