Important Added Info: Note that ANY "country of origin" items for this English movie are incredibly rare. We have only previously auctioned a set of 8 English lobby cards from this movie 22 years ago, and NO other English movie paper until we were consigned this great English still! Also note that this English still has been trimmed and it now measures 7 1/2" x 9 1/2" [19 x 24 cm].

Condition: good to very good. The still was neatly trimmed around the edges (likely to fit a frame, and it really does not affect the wonderful image), and there are a few creases around the edges.
