OWL AND THE PUSSYCAT, THE (1971) 1806

Original Columbia Pictures One Sheet Poster (27x41). Folded. Fine Plus.

Original Columbia Pictures One Sheet Poster (27x41) for the Herbert Ross comedy THE OWL AND THE PUSSYCAT (1971) starring Barbra Streisand and George Segal. Streisand was nominated for a Golden Globe as a kooky hooker, and Segal is her reluctant John in the film version of Bill Manhoff's play. Manhoff had written much for television (episodes of LEAVE IT TO BEAVER -- ha ha! - and THE REAL MC COYS along with others) but his most famous play was first performed in 1964 with Alan Alda and Diana Sands. Buck Henry doctored the dialogue and made some contributions to the film version which was filmed in very widescreen Panavision. Streisand got to exercise her New York - Jewish accent in this endearing film. This original one sheet poster is folded and fine plus condition. A small amount of handwriting on the reverse side, some light general wear. There is also a 1973 re-release poster which is almost identical and which we also have on this site for less money.
