A King in New York, the 1957 Charles Chaplin English/U.S. comedy satire ("The King of Comedians in his latest and most hilarious film"; "Original story and script by Charles Chaplin"; "Charles Chaplin adds another jewel to his comedy crown as... A King in New York"; Chaplin was appalled by the McCarthy Hearings, and this movie is a satire on that, with a deposed king of an unnamed country coming to New York for asylum, but he is falsely accused of being a Communist!) starring Charlie Chaplin (billed here as 'Charles Chaplin'; in the title role as King Shahdov), Maxine Audley, Jerry Desmonde, Oliver Johnston, Dawn Addams, Michael Chaplin (son of Charlie!), Maxine Audley, and Harry Green

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know.

Condition: very good. The poster had creases, tears, and tiny bits of paper loss scattered down the center vertical fold, with minor wear on the other folds and in the borders. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The restorer linenbacked the poster "in the European style", meaning that they did little restoration to the defects described above, but they are really not very distracting (and any restorer could likely touch them up without re-backing the poster).
