An Original Vintage Theatrical Kraftbacked Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Passport to Suez, the 1943 Andre De Toth World War II (WWII) Egypt detective Nazi spy crime mystery comedy thriller ("Spy-ring blasted! Suez threatened! Bombshell of thrills!"; "Most furious battle of the Lone Wolf's thrill-lashed career!") starring Warren William ("as The Lone Wolf"), Ann Savage, Eric Blore, Gavin Muir, Robert Stanford, and Lloyd Bridges (in one of his first credited roles!). Note that The Lone Wolf was a character in a series of eight novels that author Louis Joseph Vance wrote starting in 1914, and the first movie starring the character was in 1917, with Bert Lytell in the lead role. There were three movies after that with three different actors in the lead role. Then Lytell returned to the character, and there were many movies in a short period, and then Lytell starred in some sound movies as the character. In the 1940s, Warren William starred in a series of Lone Wolf movies, and then the character was played by Gerald Mohr. There were a few single entries mixed in where other actors played the lead role. In all, there were 24 Lone Wolf movies! The character was a master thief turned detective, and there were several other characters who were very similar, but few had the enduring popularity of The Lone Wolf!

Important Added Info: Note that this poster has been kraftbacked, which means it was backed onto a brown paper soon after it was printed (this process is called "kraft-backing", and posters with it are called "kraft-backed"). One could have it professionally removed from the kraft paper and linenbacked, and it would look great! Condition: fair to good. The poster has been kraftbacked (see above). It has a very large tear at lower right that has been repaired with tape from the back and someone drew in Savage's face at right (see our image). There are pinholes scattered in various areas and there are some other defects that can be clearly seen in our super-sized image. Learn More about condition grades
