An Original Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Style A Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More) The Captain's Paradise, the 1953 Anthony Kimmins English seafaring bigamy romantic comedy ("No man's ever had it so good!"; "Guinness is at his superb best!"; about a captain of an international ferry who has wives in both ports) starring Alec Guinness (in the title role as Captain Henry St. James), Yvonne De Carlo, Celia Johnson, Charles Goldner, and Miles Malleson NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Al Hirschfeld Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare poster. We have never auctioned this style A half-sheet for this title in all our years of auctioning! Note also that this poster has never been machine folded! Some pre-1970 half-sheet posters were machine folded twice horizontally at the poster exchange, while some were not. It can be difficult to find an unfolded example of many pre-1970 half-sheet posters (note that most post-1970 half-sheets were NOT machine folded, so they are pretty much only found unfolded, and therefore this does not apply to those half-sheets). Condition: good. The poster has slight discoloration scattered in some areas from exposure to moisture (more so along the lower edge and at lower center). It has some smudges at left and a few tears around the edges (partially repaired with tape from the back). After proper restoration the poster will look fantastic, but bear in mind the poster's condition and the cost of restoration before bidding on it. Learn More about condition grades
