An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Russian Export (printed for use in Finnish speaking areas) Movie Poster (measures 22 1/4" x 36" [57 x 91 cm]) (Learn More) Vyborgskaya Storona (released in the U.S. as "New Horizons" and released in other English-speaking countries as "The Vyborg Side"), the 1939 Grigori Kozintsev & Leonid Trauberg Russian social class melodrama sequel (the third part of a trilogy about the Russian Revolution and its aftermath) starring Boris Chirkov (as Maxim), Valentina Kibardina, Mikhail Zharov, Natalya Uzhviy, Yuriy Tolubeev, Maksim Shtraukh (as Lenin), and Mikheil Gelovani (as Stalin). Note that this was the final movie in this Russian trilogy. The first two were Yunost Maksima in 1935 and The Return of Maxim in 1937. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have never before auctioned this first release Russian poster, which is a "country of origin" poster for this Russian movie! It is one of a remarkable collection of 35 Russian posters we are currently offering (a very few are from non-Russian countries that were once somewhat part of Russia). These are among the most rare Russian posters there are, from the early 1920s through 1946. Not only have we only auctioned one of the 19 before (the other 18 we have NEVER auctioned), but in all our years of auctioning, we have only auctioned a couple of dozen Russian posters from the 1920s, and a slightly larger amount from the 1930s, and a slightly larger amount from between 1940 and 1946! Nineteen of these posters are from movies, and there are also circus posters, war posters, and others. The one common denominator to all these posters is that they have really interesting images, always completely different from those of non-Russian posters for the same movies or subjects. Just like posters from Europe, posters from Russia from World War II and before are extremely rare, surely because of the lack of paper during World War II, which caused them to recycle almost all old paper, but Russian posters are even more rare, because so few posters made it out of Russia after World War II, due to the Cold War. This is a wonderful opportunity to obtain these incredibly rare and striking Russian posters, and many of them might not be offered again for sale or at auction for many years! Also note that this Russian poster was printed in Russia, but was intended to be used when the movie was shown in Finnish speaking areas. Finally, 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: good to very good. The poster has surface paper loss behind the center crossfold and the paper has thinned and that is very slightly visible on front (see our image). There is some brown tape behind that area. It has a few small tears around the edges (also repaired with tape from the back). It is otherwise in generally nice condition and after linenbacking with some restoration the very rare Russian poster will display well. Learn More about condition grades
