Description

Gilda (Columbia, 1946). One Sheet (27" X 41") Style B.
Rita Hayworth is incandescent in her signature role as the sensual spouse of an Argentinean crime lord. Johnny Farrell (Glenn Ford) is a professional gambler, and the right-hand-man of Ballin Mundson (George Macready), who runs illegal casinos in Buenos Aires. But their relationship becomes strained when Mundson returns from a trip now married to the sultry Gilda (Rita Hayworth), who Johnny once loved. This silky film noir, directed by Charles Vidor, became Hayworth's best-known role, and both her performance and her searing beauty are simply unforgettable. Speaking of unforgettable, offered here is one of the most famous one sheets in the hobby, with a singular image that tells you all you need to know about Gilda. This example had some pinholes in the corners, a small tear at the bottom vertical center fold, and tiny holes in the left border, all of which has been addressed with excellent profession restoration. The linen has been trimmed to the edge of the poster. Get this while you can as the copy we offered last year sold for over $33,000! Very Fine- on Linen.
