Note that the U.S. posters for this movie have a 1961 NSS number on them, but the movie did not open in the U.S. until May of 1962. We imagine that this delay was caused by the controversy over the movie. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here. 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 this poster, which is a "country of origin" poster for this English movie, is an "export" one-sheet. The "regular" English one-sheet has an "X" rating box on it, which was how it was rated in England. But this poster has no rating box on it, indicating that it was used when the movie was shown in other countries, where the would have had their own rating system. This is verified by the fact that the poster was consigned to us from France, and it has a large red stamp on the back that has French writing on it, indicating it was used in France. We have never auctioned this poster before, and it has a very different image from the regular English one-sheet (and in addition, it has "day-glo" printing in the title and yellow areas, which the other poster does not have)! Also note that this English one-sheet measures 27" x 40" [69 x 102 cm]. Condition: very good. The poster was lightly folded in half an extra time and there is a partial extra horizontal fold at a slight diagonal 2" above the regular bottom fold. There is a tiny tear at the center of that extra horizontal fold, pinholes in the corners, and minor fold and border wear. Learn More about condition grades
