To live and play in naked innocence in the Garden of Eden... Until a serpent introduces Eve to the devil... And sex begins!"; "God created a woman for man... To live and play in naked innocence in the Garden of Eden"; "There was no shame until... Adam and Eve") starring Christiane Martel (billed as "Christiane Martel the Former Miss Universe from France"; in the title role as Eve), Carlos Baena (in the title role as Adam), Bernhard Goetzke, Carlos Martinez Baena, and Steffen Trantow

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this is a "country of origin" poster for this Mexican movie! Also note that this item contains some nudity, so we have placed a white bar over those areas for those who are bothered by such images. Of course, the actual item does not have the white bars.

Note that this linenbacked Mexican poster (and 110 others, which we are auctioning in 111 separate auctions) comes from a remarkable collection of Mexican posters which was assembled over many decades! We first auctioned ones from this collection in August and December of 2023, and those included many great rarities, and they sold for as much as $2,505, but there were also a number of great bargains that sold for well under the cost of linenbacking alone! NOW, we are auctioning an additional 111 posters from this amazing collection, which again includes many great rarities, including 9 Mexican posters with art by Ernesto Garcia Cabral, and 43 of the 111 are ones we either have NEVER auctioned before, or only auctioned once before! There will again be the chance for great buys in these honest no reserve auctions, and many of these posters may not be offered again for many years, if ever!

What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good to very good. The poster had slight darkening on the folds and in the borders, with a faint stain in the lower part of the man's chest. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The restorer backed the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did not do restoration to the defects described above.
