Note that the Italian title literally translates to "The Bicycle Thieves", but for unknown reasons, the movie became "The Bicycle Thief" when it was released in English-speaking countries! 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 the previous owner of this poster rolled the linen with the poster facing outward, which is not the normal way, but it has no real effect on the poster. We will send it to the new owner that same way, because rolling it the opposite way could put stress on the poster (and of course, none of this will matter once the poster is framed). Also note that this is a "country of origin" poster for this Italian movie! What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good to fine. The poster had tiny paper loss at just a few crossfolds and very minor fold and border wear. Overall, the poster was in very good to fine condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well! Oddly, the poster was rolled with the image area outward, which is how it will be sent to the new owner. Learn More about condition grades
