An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Swedish Movie Poster (measures 26 3/4" x 39 1/4") (Learn More)

The Mystery of Edwin Drood, the 1935 Stuart Walker Universal opium drugs addiction horror mystery crime thriller (based on the novel by Charles Dickens, which was unfinished when Dickens died; about a choirmaster of a church who is secretly an opium addict, and he has a young beautiful female ward, and when she becomes engaged, he is enraged, and he kills the man, and the mystery is not WHO killed him, but rather HOW he was killed and how the body was disposed of!) starring Claude Rains, Douglass Montgomery, Heather Angel, David Manners (in the title role as Edwin Drood), Francis L. Sullivan, Valerie Hobson, Forrester Harvey, and Zeffie Tilbury. Note that because Dickens had not finished this novel when he died, screenwriters John Balderston and Gladys Unger had to come up with an ending on their own, but critics and the public liked what they came up with!

Important Added Info: This Swedish poster measures 26 3/4" x 39 1/4" and is linenbacked.

Condition: very good. This poster was well restored, but you can see signs of the restoration from inches away (since most people look at posters framed on a wall from at least a few feet away, we don't feel this is a defect, but we feel it should be noted). See below for this poster's pre-restoration condition (we are the only major auction company we know of that shares this information with our bidders, but we wish everyone did!).

very good to fine. There was a 3" tear in the right of the top foldline and some much smaller tears in the top foldline. There was minor fold and edge wear.
