An Original Undated (probably late 1940s; from the first Belgian release of this movie) Vintage Theatrical Folded Belgian Movie Poster (measures 15" x 20") (Learn More)

Richard Llewellyn's How Green Was My Valley, the classic 1941 John Ford (winner of the Best Director Academy Award for this film) Welsh coal mining miner family relationship romantic melodrama ("Deep and bold are their passions! Rich and wild is their humor!"; "Reckless and lusty are their lives! Mighty and eternal is their story!"; "Richard Llewellyn's Prize Novel"; "Produced by Darryl F. Zanuck"; winner of the Best Picture Academy Award) starring Walter Pidgeon, Maureen O'Hara, Donald Crisp (winner of the Best Supporting Actor Academy Award for this film), Anna Lee, Roddy McDowall, Barry Fitzgerald, and Sara Allgood (nominated for the Best Supporting Actress Academy Award for this film). Note that an unusual distinction for this sentimental movie is that it was VERY highly regarded immediately on its release, and it is somewhat notorious for winning the Best Picture Oscar over both "Citizen Kane" and "The Maltese Falcon", among others.

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.
Important Added Info: The poster originally had a blank top that was neatly trimmed off (this is commonly done with Belgian posters, similar to how the blank top is trimmed off of U.S. window cards) and now measures 15" x 20". Also note that this poster was folded across the middle at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube.

Condition: good to very good. Part of the blank area at top has been trimmed from the poster. There is a 3" tear in the middle of the left edge as well as a few small tears along the right edge of the poster (these have been repaired with large pieces of tape from the back). There are some creases and smudges along the horizontal folds at center and around the edges of the poster.
