THE AFRICAN QUEEN (1951) 17871M
Original United Artists Six Sheet Poster (81×81). Near Mint.
More Details
Original United Artists Six Sheet Poster for the John Huston romance-adventure classic, THE AFRICAN QUEEN (1951), with truly brilliant performances by Katherine Hepburn and Humphrey Bogart. This is the story of grumpy, gin-swilling roustabout Charles Allnut (Bogart), who is running a little tramp steamer with supplies to small East African villages at the onset of World War I. When German troops invade and destroy Hepburn’s missionary village, Allnut offers to take her on the Queen back to civilization, but not before carrying out a rather daring plan to blow up a German warship. Based on novel by C.S. Forester, the outstanding adaptation by James Agee and Huston was packed with unforgettable exchanges by Hepburn and Bogart and infused throughout by Huston with hilarious tongue-and cheek satire. One of the most popular movies of 1951, it was nominated for Best Director for Huston, Best Screenplay for Agee and Huston, Best Actress for Hepburn, and Best Actor for Humphrey Bogart (which he won). This original six sheet is in near mint condition. Movieart will sell no reproductions.

He slowly uncovers a Japanese plot to attack the Canal Zone. All of the major cast members give very good performances, and the film reaches an exciting climax when Bogart foils the Japanese plans.

More Details
Original 1952 Reissue French Grande Poster (47x63) for the John Huston adventure western, THE TREASURE OF THE SIERRA MADRE (1948)—starring Humphrey Bogart, Walter Huston, Tim Holt, Bruce Bennett, and Barton MacLane. Based on a novel by the mysterious recluse B. Traven, the film explores the degenerative effects of greed, distrust, and hatred on three prospectors who team up to search for gold in Mexico. Bogart gives an amazingly complex performance as Dobbs who is clearly destined for a tragic fate. Walter Huston, the director’s father, steals the picture as the wise old codger who knows all along what will happen and takes it all in stride. Indeed, the elder Huston won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor, and his son John won two Oscars for Best Director and Best Screenplay. The film was also nominated for Best Picture. This original French reissue poster with outstanding artwork by Yves Thos and Rene Ferracci is folded and in very fine plus condition with only minor pinholes and light edge and fold wear.

THE NIGHT OF THE IGUANA (1964) 5497
Original MGM Six Sheet Poster (81×81). Four panels. Very fine condition.
More Details
Original six sheet poster for John Huston's film of Tennessee Williams' sultry drama THE NIGHT OF THE IGUANA (1964,MGM). Richard Burton plays a defrocked Episcopal priest whose post-clerical vocation is directing a busload of middle aged women on a tour of Mexico. All are middle aged except for one, the luscious Sue Lyon, straight from her title role as LOLITA in the Stanley Kubrick film. Burton has his demons to keep at bay - alcohol, despair and his lust for Lyon. Somehow this group ends up in a rundown Mexican beach-side hotel run by the ravishing if ripe Ava Gardner. Gardner has two hot beachboys to keep her amused, so it's something deeper than her own considerable passion and loneliness that attracts her to Burton. Add to this mix a kind and elegant English spinster, fabulously portrayed by the great Deborah Kerr, and her ancient father, who come to stay at the hotel and you have another great Tennessee Williams drama, one of the loveliest of his plays. Marvelously brought to the screen by John Huston, the film fairly bristles. Perhaps the offscreen love affair of Burton and Elizabeth Taylor, who were together in Mexico at the time of shooting has famously made the film part of sixties movie lore. The six sheet is in very fine condition. The poster is printed on four panels and has been "assembled" photographically for viewing. Ask us about linen backing.
