Note that the director of the movie-within-the-movie is identified as Fritz Lang, and the legendary director plays himself! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Georges Allard Important Added Info: Note that this poster, which is a "country of origin" poster for this partially French movie, is the rare first release poster from 1963 (there is a very similar re-release from the 1970s, and several more re-releases over the following years, all of which use this same classic image, which is why it is likely familiar to you)! This first release poster is extremely desired by collectors and sells for large sums of money (the last time we auctioned it was six years ago, and it auctioned for $1,250). Also note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: very good. The poster has a circular sticker in the lower right corner, put there by a different distributor. It can easily be removed by a professional or talented amateur. Otherwise, the poster has the tiniest of paper loss at the crossfold and minor fold and border wear. Learn More about condition grades
