A 1962 Re-Release Theatrical Linenbacked Half-Sheet Movie Poster (1/2sh; measures 22" x 28" [56 x 71 cm]) (Learn More)

Charles Dickens' A Tale of Two Cities, the classic 1935 Jack Conway & Robert Z. Leonard French Revolution London England/Paris France historical class struggle romantic love triangle melodrama ("Humanities greatest love story!"; nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award; based on the classic novel by Charles Dickens) starring Ronald Colman (as Sydney Carton), Elizabeth Allan (as Lucie Manette), Edna May Oliver (as Miss Pross), Reginald Owen, Basil Rathbone, Blanche Yurka (as Madame De Farge), Henry B. Walthall, Donald Woods (as Charles Darnay), Lucille La Verne, Walter Catlett, and Isabel Jewell. Note that in earlier stage and screen versions of this classic movie, the parts of Sydney Carton and Charles Darnay were played by the same actor (to better explain how one could pass for the other), but in this version, those parts were played by two different actors, and this version is rightly considered a classic!

Important Added Info:

What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster was never folded. It had some pinholes and creases around the edges. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The restorer backed the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did not do restoration to the defects described above.
