Original Columbia Pictures One Sheet Poster (27×41) for the Edward Dmytryk melodrama, WALK ON THE WILDSIDE (1962) starring Laurence Harvey, Capucine, Jane Fonda, Anne Baxter, and Barbara Stanwyck.

Barbara Stanwyck, as the bossy madam of the Doll House brothel, became the first American actress to portray an open lesbian character in a feature film. This poster is folded and in very fine condition. This is a theater-used poster, but there are no fold separations and only a few pinholes.

I CONFESS (1953) 20324

full.iconfess-italian-39x55

Italian re-release Due Foglio Poster (39×55) for the Alfred Hitchcock crime thriller, I CONFESS (1953) starring Montgomery Clift, Anne Baxter, and Karl Malden. In Quebec City, Father Logan (Clift) is accused of killing a well-known lawyer. Father Logan knows the identity of the murderer, but he can’t reveal his identity because the man confessed the crime to him in the confessional. In some respects, the film works as a response to the witch hunts of the 1950s, with a priest unwilling to testify against another person. This poster is folded and in very fine condition. One of the best posters we have seen on this underrated Hitchcock film.
