An Original Vintage Theatrical International Movie Title Lobby Card (LC TC; measures 11" x 14" [28 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) Snow Treasure, the 1968 Irving Jacoby Norway World War II (WWII) era Nazi adventure thriller ("Thrills! Suspense! Intrigue!"; "Excitement!"; "Based on the novel by Maire McSwigan"; about a group of children skiing across the mountains to smuggle gold out of the country to keep it from the Nazis.) starring James Franciscus, Ilona Rodgers, Paul Austad, Tina Austad, and Wilfred Breistrand NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this is a poster or lobby card that was printed by MGM for a European movie that they distributed in the U.S.. Somewhere in the early 1960s, MGM apparently made a huge "trade" deal with European movie distributors. From the early 1960s to the late 1960s, MGM released 100 or more non-U.S. movies in the U.S. under the MGM logo (some dating back to the 1950s), and in return, they apparently gave 100 or more MGM movies (from the 1950s and early 1960s) to those European distributors to release in Europe. All of the posters from both sets of releases have a very similar type of somewhat garish, very colorful artwork, and some have an MGM logo that is different from than on other MGM movies of the same time period, which makes it likely that those (with different logos) are from re-releases. None of these posters (except for the very first few of them) have any dates on them. Over the years, I have seen many of these posters (from both types) sold as first release, but, as stated above, some of these are mid to late 1960s re-releases, and the ones from U.S. movies are "international" posters (or lobby cards) that were used in non-U.S. countries. Condition: very good to fine. Note that this lobby card is in excellent condition and is completely unrestored and there is not a single piece of tape on either the front or back!
