Important Added Info:

Note that Czech posters are similar to Polish posters, in that they often have wild completely different designs (sometimes unrelated to the movies!), but they are different from Polish posters in two important ways. One is that they come in two sizes, a small one that measures approximately 11x16, and a larger size that measures approximately 23x33 (the same as older Polish posters). The other is that the larger size has always been FAR more difficult to obtain than Polish posters! However, we have just been consigned a wonderful collection of 39 larger Czech posters (assembled over many years by a very advanced collector), and we are currently auctioning them in 39 separate auctions. This is an extremely rare opportunity to obtain many of the best Czech posters, in the larger size!

Condition: very good to fine. The poster was tri-folded only and has the most minor of fold and border wear.
