A rare gem from the golden age of American musicals

Step into the vibrant rhythm of 1940s New York with this original French cinema poster, created for the release of the legendary film On the Town (titled Un Jour à New York in France). A milestone in the careers of Gene Kelly and Frank Sinatra, this musical comedy was groundbreaking in its energy, choreography, and joyful spirit.

Striking and joyful mid-century artwork

Printed in Technicolor, this poster bursts with vivid hues emblematic of MGM’s golden age. The six main characters – three sailors and three women – are captured mid-stride in a dynamic pose that channels the joyful chaos of 24 hours in Manhattan. In the background, a stylized skyline of New York City evokes the dreamlike world of Broadway musicals.

A rare, authentic French printing

Produced for the French theatrical release in the late 1940s or early 1950s, this 120 x 160 cm format poster is today an increasingly rare collector’s item. It features the French title Un Jour à New York, faithfully translated from the original. With few copies surviving in good condition, this print is a valuable piece of cinema history.
