Note that this was the very first book showing classic movie posters, and a HUGE number of major collectors got their start after seeing this book in 1973 or soon after! It wasn't until six years later that Steve Shapiro published his "The Movie Poster Book", and of course it was a decade after that that major auctions took an interest in movie posters. This book reproduced many scarce posters, some of which have been "buried" in collections ever since, and have never resurfaced to the present day! Note that approximately half the book is in full color, and that it includes a huge number of full page illustrations! Important Added Info: Note that this is the rare first American edition of this English book. It was later reprinted again in the United States by Bounty Books, but this time they put "A Bounty Book" on the bottom of the cover, which was not on the earlier first American edition, and most examples of this book are that reprint edition! Note that we have pictured the front cover, the title page, and the interior page that shows the publishing information, and one or more interior 2-page spreads. Condition: good to very good.
