NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Enrico De Seta Important Added Info: Note that there is something funny and unusual about this poster! When it was first printed, it had Omar Sharif and James Mason's name at the top left and right, with Catherine Deneuve and Ava Gardner's names underneath them. But apparently either Deneuve or Gardner (or their agents) complained about them getting "inferior billing", and because the posters were already printed and they were needed for the Italian theaters, every poster was "overprinted" with new credits at the top, where the four stars were given equal billing! Also note that this poster has been trimmed and it now measures 39" x 54 1/4" [99 x 138 cm]. Condition: good to very good. Learn More about condition grades
