WALTER-FILM001074No binding. Fine. Fine Art Print Vintage original 11 x 14"" 28 x 35 cm. title lobby card USA. Richard Widmark Linda Darnell Stephen McNally Sidney Poitier dir: Joseph L. Mankiewicz; Twentieth Century Fox. Brilliant Academy Award-nominated screenplay by director Mankiewicz which dealt with racism and bigotry. The film was shocking and controversial when released for its subject matter and perhaps more so today but for the reasons of its political incorrectness. It is an important document of where Americans were in 1950 and how far things have come in the years since. This is one of the most dynamic pieces of poster art ever created. The campaign was known to feature some of the very earliest of Saul Bass' art. The lay out for this piece of art is attributed to Paul Rand with Saul Bass perhaps involved in the title treatment. Card features Aug. 12 1950 stamp on verso is like new pristine and never used FINE. unknown books

WALTER-FILM004067No binding. Fine. Photo Group of fourteen 14 8 x 10"" 20 x 25 cm. photos USA. Ethel Waters Jeanne Crain dir: Elia Kazan; Twentieth Century Fox. One photo trimmed for publication one with printed text on verso JUST ABOUT FINE. This is one of a few post-WWII Hollywood films which attempted to come to grips with racism. It was compromised in various ways including the use of a white actress as Pinky a light-skinned African American. But it also contained distinguished performances from various Black actors including an Oscar-nominated turn by Ethel Waters as the protagonist's mother. Waters is in eight of these photos; five feature other African American actors including two of the legendary Nina Mae McKinney in her first major studio film in twenty years since the 1929 HALLELUJAH. unknown books
