Greatest Show on Earth (1952)

This is an original, linen-backed, one-sheet movie poster from 1952 for The Greatest Show on Earth starring Betty Hutton, Cornel Wilde, Charlton Heston, James Stewart (Jimmy Stewart), Lawrence Tierney and Emmett Kelly. Cecil B. DeMille directed the classic film. The poster measures 27" x 41" and has been linen-backed for long-term preservation and display. The poster was in good to very good condition prior to backing with pinholes around the edges from theatrical display. It was folded at the time of printing and had small paper loss at the top two cross-folds and wear along some of the fold lines. The poster received minimal touch-ups during linen-backing. Please look closely at the photos (this is the exact poster you are buying). It is not cropped or a stock image. The black squares in the corners and on the top and bottom edges are magnets and not pins. This rare and collectible movie poster, printed in 1952 to promote the theatrical release of The Greatest Show on Earth, is not a reproduction or a reprint.
