NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Nometti Important Added Info: Note that this poster is double-sided, but not at all in the usual way! A theater owner needed a poster to advertise a showing of Three Sinners but they did not have one, so they took a regular poster for The Best Years of Our Lives (written in Cyrillic), and they had someone paint an entire poster for Three Sinners on the back side. So the person who purchases this poster will receive an actual hand-painted original poster, that is on the back of another poster! We have provided an image of each side, but please realize that the winner of this auction will receive ONE poster! Also note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: fair. The poster is hand painted on one side (see above) which has caused slight discoloration on the other poster front and other defects that can be clearly seen in our super-sized image.
