Artist: Reynold Brown Important Added Info: Note that this is one of a set of six very unusual special French posters! Each measures 27 1/2" x 39 1/2", and each is horizontal, and each was printed in Italy (by "Rotolito", who at this time often printed high quality posters used in the United States, only in this case, there is all French on the poster, indicating they were used in France) and each is printed on a glossy heavy stock paper, similar to that used for U.S. half-sheets and inserts! All six of the images were done by famed poster artist Reynold Brown, and five of the six images were used on the U.S. roadshow three-sheet, and one of them does not appear to have ever been used on a U.S. poster. Note that we have only auctioned this particular poster from this set two times, once six years ago, and once ten years ago. Condition: good to very good. The poster was hand folded horizontally twice, approximately in thirds. There are creases along those folds and a few other creases scattered in the poster. It can be displayed and enjoyed just as it is, or certainly, it can be paperbacked or linenbacked. Learn More about condition grades
