Note that this is the movie with the classic scene showing Gravet and Miliza Korjus (playing a woman Strauss had a long affair with, and in real life she was an opera singer who only appeared in a couple of movies) riding in the Vienna woods in a carriage and composing the classic "Tales of the Vienna Woods" off of the sounds they hear around them! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster has never been folded! Some pre-1970 half-sheet posters were folded twice horizontally at the poster exchange, while some were not. It can be difficult to find an unfolded example of many pre-1970 half-sheet posters (note that most post-1970 half-sheets were NOT folded, so they are pretty much only found unfolded, and therefore this does not apply to those half-sheets). Condition: good to very good. Learn More about condition grades
