An Original 1948 (from the first release of this movie in Italy) Theatrical Folded Italian One-Panel (known in Italy as a "2 Fogli") Movie Poster (1p; measures 39" x 55" [99 x 140 cm]) (Learn More)

Stranger on the Third Floor, the 1940 Boris Ingster murder mystery crime film noir (about a newspaper reporter who is the sole witness to a murder, and his testimony convicts a man of that crime, but he becomes doubtful as to whether he is 100% sure that he identified the right man!) starring Peter Lorre, John McGuire, Margaret Tallichet, Charles Waldron, Elisha Cook Jr., and Charles Halton. Note that the man falsely convicted of murder is played by Elisha Cook Jr., and that Peter Lorre, who is the real murderer, does not give his first line of dialog until 10 minutes before the end of the movie, and yet he received top billing! Also note that this was clearly one of the first film noir movies, and yet it is rarely mentioned, even though it is an excellent movie, and of great historical significance!

Artist: Alfredo Capitani
Important Added Info:

UPDATED 12/30/2015: Note that this poster is from the 1948 first release, and not a re-release as we initially listed.
