An Original Vintage Theatrical Movie Sheet Music (measures 9 1/4" x 12 1/4" [23 x 31 cm]; 6 pages) (Learn More) Kiss of Death, the classic 1947 Henry Hathaway crime film noir ("20th Century-Fox Sensation!"; "It will mark you for life as it marked him for... Betrayal!"; "Based on a Story by Eleazer Lipsky"; "Screen Play by Ben Hecht and Charles Lederer") starring Victor Mature, Brian Donlevy, Coleen Gray (billed as "Introducing Coleen Gray"), Richard Widmark (nominated for the Best Supporting Actor Academy Award for this film; as the psychopathic killer, Tommy Udo, who, in one of the cinema's most memorable scenes, laughs as he pushes a woman in a wheelchair down a flight of stairs!), Patricia Morison (while she was billed on the poster and listed in the credits, her scenes were cut from the film for being too shocking), Taylor Holmes, Robert Keith, Howard Smith, and Karl Malden (in his third credited movie role!). Note that when this movie was first released, 20th Century-Fox knew they had a very "special" movie, and they created a one-sheet that was intentionally black and white, with no white borders, which is very striking. They did NOT realize that Richard Widmark would become a star off of his portrayal of a psychopath, so he was not pictured on the one-sheet or the other advertising, and even when they re-released the movie in 1953, they simply reused the image from the 1947 one-sheet (oddly, adding color), and still, Widmark was not pictured.

Note that this is one of a large collection of sheet music that we were just consigned that is really exceptional, for two reasons! For one, it includes MANY titles that we have rarely or never auctioned before, and the other is that almost all of the sheet music in this collection is in really nice condition (which is really unusual, because most sheet music was heavily used, but clearly these were not). If you like rare sheet music or sheet music in really nice condition, we guarantee you will LOVE this collection! All of the sheet music from this collection is in this set of auctions, so after this, we won't have anymore, so don't miss out! Condition: very good. Learn More about condition grades
