An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded English One-Sheet Movie Poster (1sh; measures 27 1/2" x 41" [70 x 104 cm]) (Learn More) Lubin, the 1910s English stock poster ("Heute Drama") created for use in German-speaking areas when showing Lubin movies. The Lubin Manufacturing Company was an American motion picture production company that produced silent films from 1896 to 1916. Lubin films were distributed with a Liberty Bell trademark. The Lubin company would send this poster to German theaters that would display outside their theaters (no doubt they also made variations on this poster with words in other languages at the bottom). If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that we have only once before auctioned an example of this poster! Also note that this is a "country of origin" poster for this English movie! Also note that this English one-sheet measures 27 1/2" x 41" [70 x 104 cm]. Virtually no English posters survive from the 1940s or earlier, because during World War II there were many paper shortages resulting in the destruction of almost all pre-World War II posters! Condition: good to very good. The poster has darkening in the corners and pretty minor wear on the folds and borders with just a few tiny stains scattered in the image. It has likely survived in about as good condition as one could hope, given its age! Learn More about condition grades
