MOGAMBO (1953) 9561
Original MGM One Sheet Poster (27×41). Linen-backed. Fine plus condition with only some touch-up at fold lines and repairs to minor tears.
More Details
This is an original MGM One Sheet Poster (27x41) for the John Ford romantic adventure, MOGAMBO (1953)—starring Clark Gable, Ava Gardner, Grace Kelly, and Donald Sinden. This film was a remake of RED DUST (1932), a film made by Gable over twenty years earlier. In the Ford remake, Gable plays a world weary and cynical big game hunter and safari leader. First he meets Gardner, a wisecracking American chorus girl who finds herself stranded in the jungle. Then, a British anthropologist (Sinden) and his sheltered wife (Kelly) arrive on the scene. Gable agrees to lead them all on an expedition into gorilla country. Gardner was nominated for Best Actress and Kelly was nominated for Best Supporting Actress. The great African scenery and wild animals are beautifully photographed in Technicolor, and Ford brilliantly decided not to use a musical score but rather jungle sounds and tribal chants as his soundtrack. This original stone one sheet poster is linen-backed and in fine plus condition with only some touch-up at fold lines and repairs to minor tears.

More Details
This is an original Belgium Poster (14x21) for Michael Curtiz romantic classic, CASABLANCA (1942)—starring Humphrey Bogart, Ingrid Bergman, Paul Henreid, and Claude Rains. This title became America’s most popular and beloved film of all time with an inspired script, superlative performances by all, a wonderful score by Max Steiner, and faultless direction by Director Curtiz. This turbulent love story with harrowing intrigue opened on Thanksgiving Day in 1942 at the Hollywood Theater in New York three weeks after the Allies landed at Casablanca. The film catapulted the beautiful Swedish actress Bergman into superstar status. The film also advanced Bogart from his former “gangster” roles to the first of many romantic leads for the popular actor. Bergman had never worked with Bogart before this film and never would again. The movie received eight Academy Award nominations including Best Actor for Bogart, and Best Supporting Actor for Rains. The film won Best Picture, Best Screenplay, and Best Director. This original Belgian poster is in fine plus condition. There are two editions of the post-war Belgian poster on this title. This is the second printed edition. Ask us about linen backing!

MAU-MAU (1955) 6996
Original Rock-Price Productions Window Card (14×22). Near mint condition.
More Details
This is an original Rock-Price Productions Window Card (14x22) for the Elwood Price exploitation documentary, MAU-MAU (1955)—narrated by NBC newsman Chet Huntley. This supposed documentary shows the rise of the African resistance movement known as “Mau-Mau” against British rule in East Africa in the early 1950’s but in reality was an opportunity to show as many bare-breasted African women as possible. Director Price took the completed film to most of the big studios and television networks, but they all rejected it. Finally, he took it to exploitation legend Dan Sonney, who marketed it as an “outlaw” picture—one that was “too hot” for Hollywood. This original window card is in near mint condition.

In this 15-episode serial, Beatty goes to Africa to rescue the Goddess of Joba, who is being held against her will by the high priest. This is the first serial released by the newly formed Republic Pictures, and posters of this early serial are exceptionally rare. This stunning example has restoration with colored pencils to missing crossfold paper as well as minor border and corner chipping. Wikipedia's short ID for Clyde Beatty: Clyde Beatty (June 10, 1903 – July 19, 1965) joined the circus as a cage cleaner as a teen and became famous as a lion tamer and animal trainer. He also was a circus impresario who owned his own show that later merged with the Cole Bros. Circus to form the Clyde Beatty-Cole Bros. Circus. Very Good/Fine on linen.
