Note that this movie was made immediately after France was liberated from the Nazis in late 1944, and it premiered in Paris in March of 1945, which makes it all the more remarkable! It did not go into general release in France for an entire year after, in March of 1946. It was then slowly released all over Europe, and it opened in America in November of 1946 and in New York City in February of 1947! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Masakatsu Ogasawara Important Added Info: Note that this poster was somewhat tri-folded. What does that mean? Many Japanese posters were stored in a tri-folded fashion, but where someone took a group of posters and then tri-folded the entire group. This means that many of the posters have only a slight "waviness" one third of the way from the top and the bottom of the poster, but they are not actual folds. They are normally not very noticeable at all from the front of the poster, but they can be seen from the back of the poster, and they mean that the poster does not lay 100% flat. These "waves" greatly diminish if the poster is put under weight for a time, and become almost completely invisible. Most collectors consider them a very minor defect, much less of a defect than actual foldlines. Condition: very good. Learn More about condition grades
