Important Added Info: Note that this is 1 of 18 great two-page full-color trade ads taken out of 1950s Kinematograph Weekly English trade magazines. Studios would run these elaborate 2-page ads in issues of this magazine, and they often had images not found on any of the regular movie posters (either English or U.S.). This 2-page trade ad has been removed from the May 19, 1955 issue of this magazine, and it will look incredible displayed on the new owner's wall. The back of those two pages have text or ads for other movies from that time, and we have pictured those back pages (see our images), but of course, the primary interest to bidders is the great two-page color ad, which measures 11" x 17". Also note that this is a "country of origin" item for this English movie!

Condition: very good to fine.
