Description

The Maltese Falcon (Warner Brothers, 1941). One Sheet (27" X 41"). Dashiell Hammett's thrilling murder mystery was finally brought to the screen the way Hammett wrote it, as John Huston wrote and directed the film to perfection. Humphrey Bogart was finally elevated to A list status, and the rest of the cast included Mary Astor, Pete Lorre, and newcomer Sydney Greenstreet as Casper Gutman, the "Fat Man." The film is a true classic and this one sheet, the most sought after of all film noirs, has had minor airbrush to the borders with a bit of color touch to the fold lines and center points. Very Fine+ on Linen.
