Date Sold 2/7/2019Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original 1949 (from the first release of this movie in Italy) Vintage Theatrical Folded Italian Two-Panel (known in Italy as a "4 Fogli") Movie Poster (2p; measures 45" x 62 1/2" [114 x 159 cm]) (Learn More) Cynthia, the 1947 Robert Z. Leonard romantic sickly-girl-with-overprotective-parents comedy ("You'll fall in love with Cynthia"; "Based on a play by Vina Delmar", which borrows elements of its plots from The Secret Garden) starring Elizabeth Taylor (in her first "grown-up" title role as Cynthia Bishop), George Murphy, S.Z. Sakall, Mary Astor, Gene Lockhart, Spring Byington, James Lydon, and Scotty Beckett. Note that Elizabeth Taylor was just 15 when this movie was made, and just a year before, she was a child actress, but MGM recognized that she had "matured", so they gave her this role, where she, while still a teen, had her first romantic part, including a kiss with boyfriend James Lydon! 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 we have never before auctioned this Italian poster! Also note that Italian posters from the first few years after World War II are among the most rare posters there are, and they were almost all not the standard Italian sizes that became standard in the late 1940s (the 39x55 one-panel, the 55x78 two-panel, etc). These are likely so rare because there were still major paper shortages in Italy right after World War II, and few posters were printed, and most were recycled. This is an extremely rare first release Italian poster from 1949. Also note that this Italian two-panel was printed in 2 sections designed to overlap. Condition: very good.
