It is one of a remarkable collection of SIXTEEN "country of origin" British quads we are currently auctioning, which includes some wonderful ones, and ten of them are from the 1950s and six are from the early 1960s, and all of them are posters that virtually never are offered for sale or at auction, and many of them are ones we have never auctioned before! This is an incredibly rare opportunity to acquire one or many of these ultra rare "country of origin" posters that may not come up again for many years! 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: very good to fine. The poster has some minor creases on the folds, with small separation at the ends of two of the vertical folds. It has a few creases scattered throughout. Learn More about condition grades
