An Original Vintage Folded Style B Half-Sheet Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More) Old Acquaintance, the 1943 Vincent Sherman romantic love triangle best friends melodrama ("'I know what every woman expects from love ... And What She Accepts If She Is Wise!'"; "There are certain things one just doesn't do! But I Did"; "From the Stage Play by John Van Druten"; about a pair of female childhood best friends who help each other professionally, but after a long time, one of the husbands chases after the other woman, causing much tension in their relationship) starring Bette Davis, Miriam Hopkins, Gig Young, John Loder, Dolores Moran, Philip Reed, and Roscoe Karns. Note that this movie was re-made in 1981 as "Rich and Famous". Note that Gig Young had started making movies in 1940 under his given name of "Byron Barr", but he had little success and was mostly uncredited. In 1942, he played a character called "Gig Young" in "The Gay Sisters", and he changed his name to his character's name, and he started having much greater success, playing young romantic leads (and over the next couple of decades, he continued to play romantic parts, often lecherous older men!). 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 poster (which we have only auctioned once before) is not marked, but since we know that there IS a style A poster on this title, and this poster has a different image, we assume that this poster is the style B, so we are referring to it in that fashion. Note that the style A poster has just a single large image of Bette Davis, but this poster has a great close image of a very young Gig Young romancing Bette Davis, with Young and Hopkins beneath that. Note finally 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. Condition: good to very good. The poster has a few tape stains and tears of varying lengths around the edges (the original tape was not used for any restoration purpose). It is otherwise in generally nice condition.
