About This Item

Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, 1960. Undetermined. very good. [8],[1]pp. Complete set of eight lobby cards and one sheet. Lobby cards measure 11 X 14 inches. One sheet lithograph measure 27 X 41 inches, has minor edge tears and a few holes with professional restoration. Lobby cards have very small amount of colour offsetting, mostly to verso, else clean and bright. Uncommon to get lobby cards and poster together in reasonable condition. Lobby cards and one sheet made to promote the film adaptation of Jack Kerouac's novel. Despite being produced by a major movie studio and starring famous actors Leslie Caron and George Peppard the movie was a financial flop. Allen Ginsberg derided it for its two dimensional characters and shallow portrayal of the beat culture and this can be seen in the subtitles of the lobby cards, such as "When the party's over and she's alone, the wild Bohemian searches her soul for the answers" and "The new Bohemians took what they liked, even if it was another fellow's girl.". 1960
