An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Swedish Movie Poster (measures 28" x 39 1/4" [71 x 100 cm]) (Learn More) Smultronstallet (released in the U.S. in 1959 as "Ingmar Bergman's Wild Strawberries"), the classic 1957 Ingmar Bergman Swedish reflections-on-the-meaning-of-life family relationship melodrama (about a successful elderly doctor and his troubled relationship with his adult son, who is also a doctor, and his extended family, and he looks back over his long life, and he has disturbing dreams about his first romance and about his impending death) starring Victor Sjostrom, Bibi Andersson, Gunnar Bjornstrand, Ingrid Thulin, Folke Sundquist, Bjorn Bjelvenstam, Naima Wifstrand, and Jullen Kindahl. Note that Sjostrom was a major Swedish director starting in 1912 and in 1920 was hired by MGM where he had great success. He mostly quit directing with the advent of sound, but he became a mentor to Ingmar Bergman, and he took the lead role in this movie, and was incredible in it! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Gosta Aberg Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare "country of origin" poster for this Swedish Ingmar Bergman movie! We have never auctioned one in all our years of auctioning. Also note that this poster was folded at one time but has been laying flat for a long time and will be sent rolled in a tube. Condition: fair to good. The poster is in lesser condition. There are some visible creases, defects, areas of paper loss and tears of varying lengths along parts of some edges and there is significant foldline separation and paper loss especially in the right side of the lower horizontal fold and several fold edges. Many of those areas are repaired with tape from the back however the poster is fragile. There is a tax stamp at upper right in the second "T" of "STALLET". The rare first release Swedish Bergman poster is in need of restoration, and certainly a competent restorer could repair the defects described above, but please bear in mind the cost of restoration before placing a bid.
