Important Added Info: Note that this poster was folded at one time, but it has been stored flat, and because it is very fragile we are not refolding it and it will be sent rolled in a tube. Also note that movie paper from this film is incredibly rare. We have never before auctioned even a single movie paper item from this movie until we were consigned this poster! Also note that few people know that in the early days of British quads, they were originally in a vertical format (but they measured 30" x 40", just as they continue to do throughout the years). This is because so few of them survive, almost surely because of the massive paper shortages in England during World War II! At some point in the 1950s, they changed orientation to be horizontal, and they have remained that way to the present day. Finally note that this is an extremely rare pre-World War II English poster! Virtually no English posters survive from the 1940s or earlier, because during World War II there were many paper shortages resulting in the destruction of almost all pre-World War II posters! Condition: very good to fine. The poster has truly minor fold and border wear and the paper is not at all fragile. It has surely survived in s nice condition as one could hope after 112 years!
