Important Added Info: This poster is the very rare first Belgian release from 1945. This movie was first released in Belgium at the end of World War II in 1945, and the poster for that release measures approximately 12" x 16", and was printed on the back of a map or part of another poster (typical of posters released there at that time, due to massive paper shortages). In 1948 or 1949, the movie was re-released, and the Belgian poster for that first re-release measures 14" x 22" (but it appears that it was printed from the same plates as that original small poster, because the image area of the re-release poster only measures 10" x 14", with large white borders, which also explains why some of those posters show up trimmed). The main difference between the two posters is different printer information. This poster is definitely the very rare first Belgian release from 1945. 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: good. The poster was printed on the back of a map, and there is noticeable bleed-through throughout the poster (see our image). There is small paper loss at lower right in the blank border only. Please study our super-sized image carefully to see how this rare poster appears, and please do not bid on this poster unless you can accept its defects described above, or are willing to have restoration performed.
