An Original Vintage Theatrical Linenbacked Japanese Two-Panel Movie Poster (measures approximately 20" x 57") (Learn More) Mondo Cane, the classic 1962 (released in the U.S. in 1963) Paolo Cavara, Franco Prosperi & Gualtiero Jacopetti Italian sexploitation bizarre human oddity documentary ("Overpowering, fascinating - often shocking!"; "enter a hundred incredible worlds where the camera has never gone before!"; "A Masterpiece in Film Making"; "All the scenes you will see in this film are true and taken only from life. If often they are shocking it is because there are many astounding and even unbelievable things in this world."; featuring sex orgies, shark attacks, drunken Germans!, and a smoking chicken) narrated by Stefano Sibaldi. This was the very first movie of its kind, and was excellent, but unfortunately, its success spawned a huge number of imitators, most of which were exploitative and pretty worthless! One could make a convincing argument that all of today's "reality" TV owes a huge debt to this movie! If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this Japanese two-panel poster was printed in 2 sections (designed to overlap) and when combined, the poster measures approximately 20" x 57". Condition: very good. The poster had some extra partial horizontal foldlines and some scuffs in the solid black background areas. There were some scuffs in the center of the bottom image area and tiny paper loss in the left of the bottom image area. Overall, the poster was in very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was pretty well backed, but the restorer pretty much just backed it "as is", not addressing the defects detailed above (which are not very noticeable or distracting).
