Important Added Info: Note that there is a 1970s re-release poster that looks very similar to this poster, except that it is printed by a different printer, and that information is in the lower right corner. The re-release poster has mistakenly been auctioned as the original many times (including by ourselves before we learned to distinguish them). The poster offered here is absolutely from the original 1968 French release!
