Important Added Info: Note that we have only once before auctioned this French poster (10 years ago in much lesser condition than this one), which is a "country of origin" poster for this partially French movie! Also note that this French eight-panel measures 118 1/2" x 155 3/4" [301 x 396 cm]. Finally, note that this French eight-panel was printed in 8 sections designed to overlap.

Condition: very good. There are tiny pinholes in the corners, where it was attached to a wall, but otherwise, the poster is in excellent condition!
