An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Three-Sheet Movie Poster (3sh; measures 41" x 81" [104 x 206 cm]) (Learn More)

The Holy Year at the Vatican (also released as "Holy Year 1950"), the 1950 Anthony Muto & Jean Pages historical religious documentary featurette ("Filmed in the Vatican with the approval of His Holiness and the Central Committee for the Holy Year"; "A feature motion picture that will take you on the pilgrimage!"; "An inspiring story of the pilgrimages being made to the Vatican with magnificent scenes of life in Vatican City."; "A March of Time Full Length Feature") narrated by Monsignor Fulton J. Sheen, Kenny Delmar, and Father Robert J. Gannon. Note that the IMDb says that this movie (which was produced by Time Inc. for their "March of Time" series) was first distributed by Astor Pictures under the title "The Holy Year at the Vatican", which DID release some original movies (mostly from small companies), but while we have seen a poster that has Astor on it, we have also seen a poster that has 20th Century-Fox on it, and the title is "Holy Year 1950", which the IMDb says is an "alternate title". It seems quite possible that Astor initially distributed it and then 20th Century-Fox picked it up, but it is also possible that the reverse is true. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here.
If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: Note that this poster has "Astor Pictures" on it. We can't say for certain if this is from the first release or a re-release (see above). Please do not bid on this poster unless you can accept this uncertainty. Note that this three-sheet was printed in 3 sections designed to overlap.

Condition: good. There is surface paper loss in the tagline below the Pope, and also in the left and right of the bottom tagline area (see our image). There is some darkening on the back of the part of the poster that was on the outside when it was fully folded. There are some creases and several tears along the foldlines that were on the outside when the poster was fully folded. There are some creases, smudges, and tiny tears on some foldlines, and some tiny paper loss at some crossfolds.
