Description
The African Queen (United Artists, 1952). One Sheet (27" X 41").
Humphrey Bogart won the only Oscar of his career for this finely-wrought film about a grizzled boat captain and the prim lady he takes on as a passenger in the early days of the Great War. Katharine Hepburn never looked more like a Harlequin Romance heroine than she does on this gorgeous one sheet. The poster shows corners in the borders and background, edge wear with tears, a faint pencil mark in the credits, and paper tape on the verso along the edges and folds. All the action is captured in brilliant color on this popular one sheet, with Bogart and Hepburn front and center. Fine/Very Fine.
