An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27" x 41" [69 x 104 cm]) (Learn More)

It's a Sick, Sick, Sick World, the 1965 Antonio Scarpati sexploitation "mondo" drugs-and-sex rape documentary ("Filmed in Rome, Paris, London, Germany and the United States"; an obvious title parody of the recently released 1965 movie "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World") featuring Lucky Kargo, Sammy Petrillo, Jackie Richards, Richard B. Shull, and narrated by Joel Holt. Note that this movie was one of the many, many "mondo" movies made in the years following the massive success of 1962's "Mondo Cane", which showed many strange and disturbing scenes from all over the world (in particular, Italy made many, many of these movies). Many of these showed burlesque theaters and strippers, but this movie went a step further, showing prostitutes and a scene of a man shooting heroin on a public street, and there were also nude scenes, and the movie was partially filmed in the U.S., but it also included scenes from other countries. Movie paper of any kind from this movie is incredibly rare!
If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.

Condition: good. The poster was hand-folded and it has slightly darkened (especially along portions of the blank borders) and there is some paper loss at upper left. The image areas is in generally nice condition and certainly the poster could be restored and linenbacked and it would look great, but please bear in mind its defects and cost of restoration before placing a bid.
