An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Italian Photobusta Movie Poster (pbusta; measures 18 3/4" x 26 3/4" [48 x 68 cm]) (Learn More)

Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds, the classic 1963 Alfred Hitchcock suspense horror thriller ("Nothing you have ever witnessed before has prepared you for such sheer stabbing shock!"; "'It could be the most terrifying motion picture I have ever made!' - Alfred Hitchcock"; "'...and remember, the next scream you hear may be your own!'"; "The birds is here!"; "Daphne Du Maurier's shattering psychic thriller."; "Based on Daphne Du Maurier's Classic Suspense Story!") starring Rod Taylor, Jessica Tandy, Suzanne Pleshette, Tippi Hedren (billed as "Introducing 'Tippi' Hedren, A Fascinating New Personality"), Veronica Cartwright (13 years old), and Richard Deacon. Note that Alfred Hitchcock used the two taglines "The birds is coming!" and "The birds is here!" on several different types of advertising for this movie, no doubt because he thought it was funny that while it is technically grammatically correct when referring to the movie, they "sound wrong"!

Important Added Info:

What IS linenbacking? Learn More

Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: good. The poster was folded down the middle with lots of creases and scuffs in that area. It had many creases and scuffs around the edges and punch holes in the form of numbers in the upper right, with paper loss in the top right corner. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to linenbacking. The restorer backed the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did slight restoration to the defects described above.
