Product Description:
Humphrey Bogart - Cardboard Cutout Approx 6ft High
The ultimate on-screen tough guy, in a cool pose – everything a movie star should be. He may not be the prettiest man alive, but you can’t beat a bit of Bogart… Humphrey Bogart has probably been imitated more than any other actor. His film characters such as Sam Spade, Rick Blaine, Duke Mantee and Fred C. Dobbs, to name a few, have become woven into the fabric of culture. His on-screen fights against the likes of Cagney, Robinson, and Raft were nothing compared to his offscreen antics which included several stormy marriages, ongoing battles with Hollywood mogul Jack Warner for better parts, and a dependency on alcohol. For many, though, he will always be the ultimate screen actor whose position as the greatest movie tough guy of them all is secure. Bogart's screen persona -the tight-lipped, streetwise thug -is a testament to his gifts as an actor, especially when contrasted against his upper crust upbringing. Bogey’s unique voice comes partly from a wound (some say a war wound, others say it’s one he sustained as a child) which causes his trademark lisp… This has to be one of the all time coolest cardboard cut outs. Here’s lookin’ at you, Bogey! This full sized photo-quality cardboard cutout arrives in our own specially designed rigid packaging. Easy to assemble, the cutout has a fold-out strut to the rear which means it's entirely self supporting.
