An Original 1946 Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 28" x 41" [71 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Brief Encounter, the classic 1945 (released in the U.S. and Canada in 1946) David Lean (nominated for the Best Director Academy Award for this film) English romantic infidelity melodrama ("A story of the most precious moments in a woman's life!"; "Living a love that was not theirs"; "Thrill to Rachmaninoff Concerto No 2 as played by Eileen Joyce"; based on the play by Noel Coward; about two people who are married to others who accidentally meet each other and are irresistibly drawn to each other, but are decent people who want to avoid having an affair; many people, myself included, consider this one of the handful of the finest movies ever made!) starring Celia Johnson ("Whose performance was voted the best of the year 1946 by the New York Critics"; nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), Trevor Howard, Stanley Holloway, Joyce Carey, Cyril Raymond, and Valentine Dyall NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we know that this movie was released in England in 1945 and then released in the U.S. by Universal Studios in 1946. But this poster, which we have never seen before, is a U.S. one-sheet, and it seems likely to be from the first U.S. release as well! So there is one of two answers. It has "E.J. Warner Poster Co. 653 11th Ave, NYC" printed in the bottom left border. It may be that this poster is from when the movie premiere in New York City prior to the Universal release (we found a reference online that says that the movie was "released in the United States in Winter", and possibly this could be the poster used then), or it could be that this poster is a sort of "regional" poster like those from Leader Press, and they might be from after the main Universal release in 1946. If anyone knows more about this poster, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Also note that this one-sheet measures 28" x 41" [71 x 104 cm]. Condition: very good. The poster has some minor creases and scuffs along parts of the folds and pinholes in the top corners. It has some creases and tears in the top of the left blank border.
