An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Three-Sheet Movie Poster (3sh; measures 41" x 81" [104 x 206 cm]) (Learn More)

Bus Stop, the 1956 Joshua Logan Phoenix Arizona romantic comedy ("The coming of age of Bo Decker... And the girl who made him a man!"; "Give this cowboy enough rope and he'll land Marilyn Monroe"; "You got an idea a woman should be treated like an animal!"; "Based on the stage play by William Inge"; about a cowboy who meets a beautiful showgirl, and has the fantasy that she will go to his ranch to live with him, so that she can escape her tawdry life, but she has other ideas) starring Marilyn Monroe, Don Murray (nominated for the Best Supporting Actor Academy Award for this film; billed as "Introducing Hollywood's newest hunk of man"), Arthur O'Connell, Betty Field, Hope Lange, Robert Bray, Eileen Heckart, and Henry Slate. Note that this film had been intended to star Elvis and Marilyn but Elvis' manager prevented this from happening, and that Don Murray, who was a success on Broadway, but was yet to make his first movie, stepped in to Elvis' shoes!

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this poster is far more rare than the other posters from this title. We have previously only auctioned three examples of it in all our years of auctioning! This three-sheet was printed in 2 sections (instead of the normal two-thirds/one-third proportion of the two pieces, the top piece of this poster ends at Marilyn's foot, and the bottom piece is small and has the bottom inset photos and the credits; this was surely done so that Marilyn's image could be unbroken!).

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good to fine. The poster had tiny paper loss at just a few crossfolds and a very few creases, scuffs, and tiny tears on parts of some foldlines. Overall, the poster was in very good to fine condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well!
