Jamaica Inn (Paramount, 1939). Australian One Sheet (27  X 40 )
Jamaica Inn (Paramount, 1939). Australian One Sheet (27" X 40"). Set in the 19th century, Maureen O'Hara plays a young woman who moves in with her aunt and uncle, who run the decrepit "Jamaica Inn." She soon discovers that the shady characters frequenting this inn are part of a pirating operation. Based upon Daphne du Maurier's first best selling novel, this was Alfred Hitchcock's last British film, before departing for America. Charles Laughton was the star of the film as Sir Humphrey Pengaltan, the villainous squire who leads a pack of smugglers falsely luring boats into the area. The boats would crash on the rocks, killing the passengers and allowing the smugglers to loot the cargo. This is a gorgeous portrait Stone Litho One Sheet and is very rare. Very Fine on Linen. Important notice: Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 200-250 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 20% Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid.
