An Original (first released in Poland in 1957) Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Polish Movie Poster (23x33; measures 23 1/2" x 34 1/4") (Learn More)

Il Cappotto (released in the U.S. as "The Overcoat"), the 1952 Alberto Lattuada Italian poor-man-only-wants-a-nice-overcoat melodrama (based on the story 'The Overcoat' by Nikolai Gogol; about a lowly clerk who has only one desire, which is to have a nice overcoat, and he eventually gets it, but it leads to his death) starring Renato Rascel, Yvonne Sanson, Giulio Stival, Ettore Mattia, and Giulio Cali. Note that this classic Russian story was re-imagined in then-present day Italy!

Artist: Liliana Baczewska

Condition: good to very good. The poster was folded down the center at one time. There were creases, small tears, and many brown stains around the edges of the poster. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The restorer linenbacked the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did not do restoration to the defects described above, but they are really not very distracting, because they are mostly in the blank borders (and any restorer could easily touch them up without re-backing the poster).
