Artist: Reginald Mount Important Added Info: Note that this is a "country of origin" item for this English movie! Also note that this was removed from the original English pressbook for this classic movie (some English pressbooks from this time would have the 17 1/4" x 22 1/4" lift bill poster stapled into the centerfold, or sometimes left loose in the center of the pressbook). Someone removed this wonderful poster, knowing that it will surely be framed and displayed by itself. Condition: very good to fine. The poster was removed from the center of the pressbook . There are two pairs of staple holes on the foldline (one affecting the "G" of "GUINNESS" and one affecting the "OM" of "LOM"), but otherwise, the poster is in really nice condition (although it was rolled for a long time, so it is "curling", but that will disappear over time if it is stored flat). I envy the new owner of this poster who will get to have it displayed on their wall! Learn More about condition grades
