THE BEST YEARS OF OUR LIVES

Six Sheet (79" x 78")
Very Fine Folded
RKO, 1946

Large-format posters for many films are exceedingly rare as few have survived. Intended to be pasted on walls and billboards, they often disappeared over time after their use. This particular six-sheet is an extremely scarce item from an Academy Award-winning film.

Printed across four panels, this rare six-sheet poster exhibits minimal fold wear and handling issues. It remains in exceptionally clean condition.

After years of heroic war films, William Wyler directed this sobering look at the complex issues veterans faced when they
returned home. Adapted from the novella Glory For Me, Robert E. Sherwood delivers a staggering Oscar-winning
screenplay that tells a story as relevant today as it was in 1946. With innovative photography by Greg Toland, the film
received seven Academy Awards and was the year's highest-grossing film. An additional honorary award was given to
Harold Russell, who delivered a devastating performance and was an authentic World War Two amputee who lost both
hands in an explosion. A truly remarkable and unforgettable film.
