One-Sheet (27" x 40.5")
Fine- on Linen
Paramount, 1955

Alfred Hitchcock was at the height of fame as a film director when this superb film was made. This one-sheet poster puts both Cary Grant's and Grace Kelly's romantic chemistry and Hitchcock's skill for suspense front and center.

This poster on linen has had light touch-ups to the two lower vertical center point cross folds, the top of the vertical fold, and the upper and lower right corners. Still evident are sporadic pinholes, pin pulls, and chipping, especially in the borders, and there are also some scattered light scratches in the lower left area.

Cary Grant and Grace Kelly bring impeccable class and glamour to Alfred Hitchock's light-hearted French Riviera-set romantic crime film, in which a retired cat burglar (Grant) must catch an imposter thief who's ruining his reputation.

Estimate: $1,500 - 3,000
