    Description

    Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (20th Century Fox, 1953). Poster (40" X 60"). "Two Little Girls From Little Rock," Jane Russell and Marilyn Monroe, wind their way across the Atlantic to Paris on an elegant ocean liner, all the while searching for rich husbands. Under the direction of Howard Hawks (and with the minor help of famed substitute singer Marni Nixon), Marilyn has one of her best-known screen moments with her rendition of "Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend." This very rare and unique poster is the far superior image from this musical. These 40" X 60"s were printed on a heavy stock and far fewer copies were printed. Since they were somewhat fragile to handle, this format has survived less frequently. This poster has stains and edge tears that have been touched up. There is also light wrinkling and light edge wear. Fine-.

    Please see full-color, enlargeable images above for more details.
