An Original 1946 (from the first release of this movie in Italy) Vintage Theatrical Folded Italian One-Panel (known in Italy as a "2 Fogli") Movie Poster (1p; measures 39" x 55" [99 x 140 cm]) (Learn More) The Amazing Mr. Williams, the 1939 Alexander Hall romantic crime murder detective mystery screwball comedy ("Imagine loving a lug who'd want to solve a murder on his wedding night!"; "There's more fun here than meets the eye... as a sleuth makes headlines solving murder mysteries... while his would-be bride pines for him to make love!"; "A bombardment of laughs!") starring Melvyn Douglas, Joan Blondell, Ruth Donnelly, Clarence Kolb, Edward Brophy, and John Wray NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Alfredo Capitani Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare Italian poster from right after World War II! Virtually no Italian posters survive from right after World War II (mostly only some heavy stock lobby cards, and even those are rare). Apparently there were many paper shortages in Italy during World War II, resulting in the destruction of almost all posters from before World War II, and also from during the war, and the first few years afterwards! Condition: good. The poster is fragile and has tears and paper loss around the edges, and some on the foldlines. While the poster is in need of expert professional restoration, it is mostly "all there", and after linenbacking by a talented professional, the poster will look fantastic, and it will likely require little paint restoration within the image.
