Paramount Pictures Original One-Sheet Poster (27x41) Folded Fine Condition

Paramount Pictures Original One-Sheet Poster (27x41) for the Daniel Mann directed film THE ROSE TATTOO (1955). The film starred the Hollywood A-list star Burt Lancaster and the great Italian actress Anna Magnani. This was a tempestuous teaming if there ever was one, and it was intended to bring fire to the film version of Tennessee Williams' play. The movie also starred Jo Van Fleet and Marisa Pavan. Williams had written the play for Magnani to play on Broadway, but the actress rejected the idea in 1951 because her English was not good enough. But by the time the film was being made ready, she accepted. The resulting film was a successful one, being nominated for an Academy Award in 1955 as Best Picture. And Anna Magnani won the Academy Award in 1955 for Best Actress in this film. With a nice score by Alex North and beautiful black and white cinematography by James Wong Howe, the film is still quite lively today. The poster is folded and was used in a theater. We have graded the poster in fine condition because of signs of general use and age. A nice example of the poster.
