STORY OF MOLLY X style A 1/2sh 1949 bad girl June Havoc ends up in woman's prison, ultra rare!
An Original Vintage Theatrical Paperbacked Style A Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm])
The Story of Molly "X", the 1949 Crane Wilbur bad girl prison rehabilitation crime thriller ("Actually filmed at Tehachapi, California's famous Women's prison!"; a strange and unusual story of a wife of a gang leader who takes over the gang after he is killed, ends up in ...prison, and is rehabilitated while there; a rare case of a strong leading role for a woman in a part that would normally be written for a man!) starring June Havoc (in the title role as Molly X), John Russell, Dorothy Hart, Elliott Lewis, Connie Gilchrist, Richard Egan, and Cathy Lewis
Important Added Info: This poster has been paperbacked. What is paperbacking? This means the poster was backed onto a paper backing (acid-free), that is similar in feel to that of the original poster (except somewhat heavier). It is a similar process to linenbacking, except that most collectors use linenbacking for one-sheets and paperbacking for half-sheets, inserts, window cards, and lobby cards.Note that because this poster was paperbacked onto a thicker paper backing, it CAN'T be sent rolled (someone could conceivably roll it or try to do so, but we think it would have a strong chance of lessening its condition, so we will only send it in a very large flat package that measures approximately 24" x 30", unless the buyer insists, and then they would be responsible for any damage).Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good to fine. Prior to paperbacking, the poster was never folded. It had a tear in the left of the top border and very minor other border wear. Overall, the poster was in very good to fine condition prior to paperbacking.
The poster was nicely backed, and displays well!
The squares in the corners are just magnets and will not affect the item.
