Vintage Movie Poster Marilyn Monroe “There’s No Business Like Show Business”

Description

This vintage original 1954 movie window card (14” x 22”) for the romantic musical comedy entitled “
Irving Berlin's There's No Business Like Show Business
” starring
an all-star cast of Ethel Merman, Donald O'Connor, Marilyn Monroe, Dan Dailey, Johnnie Ray, Mitzi Gaynor, and Hugh O'Brian.
It was nominated for three Academy Awards.
This window card is in very good condition with rich, vibrant colors which display beautifully.  As is typical of many vintage window cards, there is a stamp in the blank imprint area identifying the theater at which the poster was displayed. (I actually prefer to see information about the theater in that blank area as it adds to the character and style of the piece.) The top 4 inches in the blank area were folded back . There is a yellowed tape stain across the bottom edge of the top folded area, where it was attached to the display window at the theater.
Donald
O'Connor
later called the film which was shown in CinemaScope the best picture he ever made which is a little surprising since he appeared in what is considered the greatest musical of all time “Singing in the Rain”.
