An Original 1946 Vintage Theatrical Folded Insert Movie Poster (measures 14" x 36" [36 x 91 cm]) (Learn More) Brief Encounter, the classic 1945 (released in the U.S. and Canada in 1946) David Lean (nominated for the Best Director Academy Award for this film) English romantic infidelity melodrama ("A story of the most precious moments in a woman's life!"; "Living a love that was not theirs"; "Thrill to Rachmaninoff Concerto No 2 as played by Eileen Joyce"; based on the play by Noel Coward; about two people who are married to others who accidentally meet each other and are irresistibly drawn to each other, but are decent people who want to avoid having an affair; many people, myself included, consider this one of the handful of the finest movies ever made!) starring Celia Johnson ("Whose performance was voted the best of the year 1946 by the New York Critics"; nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), Trevor Howard, Stanley Holloway, Joyce Carey, Cyril Raymond, and Valentine Dyall NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have only once before auctioned this first release U.S. insert (and it sold for $388, and now that very same poster has been reconsigned to us for this auction, so it is still the only example we have ever auctioned!). None of the first U.S. release posters were full-color, and the one-sheet and three-sheet have disappointing images, so this insert is more desired by collectors! Also note that this poster was folded at one time, and the folds have not diminished, so depending on what the buyer purchases with this poster, it can either be re-folded and sent in a flat package or it can be left unfolded and sent rolled in a tube (it will be the choice of the buyer of the poster, and they should notify us after they win to tell us which they want us to do). Condition: good. Someone put paper tape on the back of all four borders, not for a restoration purpose, but to reinforce the poster. It has tiny staple holes in the corners and tiny paper loss in the right blank corners, with minor border wear. Learn More about condition grades
