An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Three-Sheet Movie Poster (3sh; measures 41" x 81") (Learn More) Dark Rapture, the 1938 Armand Denis Africa jungle adventure documentary ("Tears the veil from secret lives!"; "Filmed and recorded on the Denis-Roosevelt Belgian Congo expedition"; "Produced by Armand Denis of 'Goona-Gonna' and 'Wild Cargo' fame") narrated by Jean Toscan with comments by Charles de Grandcourt. Note that Armand Denis had explored Africa and India in the 1930s with his wife Leila Roosevelt, and had produced and directed many short subjects with footage of their travels that he and his wife had shot themselves. In 1948, the 52 year-old Armand Denis divorced Roosevelt, and married 34 year-old Michaela Holdsworth, and together they made four movies (very similar to those he had made with his first wife). If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this poster has an extremely large sexy image of a non-African looking scantily clad woman! We doubt she was in the movie at all, but we have no doubt that she greatly increased the box office for this jungle documentary! What IS linenbacking?
