An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Argentinean Movie Poster (measures 29" x 43 1/4") (Learn More)

The Apartment, the 1960 Billy Wilder (winner of the Best Director Academy Award for this film) romantic melodrama ("Movie-wise, there has never been anything like 'The Apartment' love-wise, laugh-wise or otherwise-wise!"; "Written by Billy Wilder and I.A.L. Diamond"; "A Billy 'Some Like It Hot' Wilder production"; winner of the Best Picture Academy Award; a surprisingly downbeat movie about a young unmarried executive at a company who starts rising up when he starts letting married executives use his apartment for extra-marital affairs) starring Jack Lemmon (nominated for the Best Actor Academy Award for this film), Shirley MacLaine (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), Fred MacMurray, Ray Walston, Edie Adams (as Miss Olsen), Naomi Stevens, Hope Holiday, and Jack Kruschen (nominated for the Best Supporting Actor Academy Award for this film; as Dr. Dreyfuss). This was also the last black & white movie to win the Academy Award until "Schindler's List" in 1993, followed by "The Artist" in 2011!

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.

Condition: very good. The poster had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and minor fold and border wear. There was a slightly uneven crease running across the lower part of the image (in Lemmon's pants and the bottom of MacLaine's skirt), and it looks like it might have been a printing defect. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well!
