An Original Vintage Linenbacked One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh) (Learn More) The Ascent of the Matterhorn, the 1919 silent mountain climbing expedition travel documentary. Note that this was one of a series of travel documentaries created by Burlingham Travel Pictures, and they were quite popular in movies at that time, because in those days, that was the only way average people could hope to see exotic locations. However, there is some mystery concerning the date of this movie! IMDB claims it's from 1923 and we've seen other sources mention 1913 and 1919. This is likely because, as mentioned in his wiki, "Burlingham continued to re-edit and release in the United States his past films like The Ascent of the Matterhorn, Mont Blanc, and Descent into the Crater of Vesuvius". So this poster is likely promoting a re-edited re-release of the original 1913 version, and we believe that 1919 is correct based on a contemporary advertisement, and the litho number on the poster also indicates 1919. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: Good to Very Good. Learn More about condition grades
