An Original 1955 (from the first release of this movie in Poland) Vintage Theatrical Unfolded Polish Movie Poster (measures 24 3/4" x 36 1/4" [63 x 92 cm]) (Learn More)

The Private Life of Henry the Eighth, the 1933 Alexander Korda English royalty historical romantic melodrama ("Every woman got it in the neck - eventually"; "He gave his wives a pain in the neck"; nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award; very loosely based on historical events) starring Charles Laughton (winner of the Best Actor Academy Award for this film; in the title role as King Henry VIII), Robert Donat, Merle Oberon (as Anne Boleyn, in her first important role!), Binnie Barnes (as Katherine Howard), Elsa Lanchester (as Anne of Cleves), Franklin Dyall, Miles Mander, Wendy Barrie (as Jane Seymour), Everley Gregg (as Katherine Parr), and John Loder. Note that Elsa Lanchester was married to Charles Laughton four years before this movie was made (and remained married to him until his death in 1962), and her scenes with Laughton in this movie are particularly delightful!

Artist: Jozef Mroszczak
Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare poster. We have only auctioned one in all our years of auctioning and that was in 2006!

Condition: good. The poster has slight discoloration scattered through approximately 11" of the back of the upper edge and areas of that slight discoloration show through to the front (especially in lighter-colored areas - see our image). There are some small tears at lower left that are backed with conservation tape and there is a small partial horizontal misprint at upper left through the green border. The very rare poster is otherwise and it is the kind of poster that responds really well to restoration. It is likely that most of the slight discoloration can be removed chemically, and after proper restoration and linenbacking the poster will display really well (but of course bear in mind the poster's condition and the cost of restoration before bidding on it.)
