See A cast of 50,000... hordes of victims led to their doom in the Colosseum... in history's most agonizing moments of terror! See Giant gladiators fight to the death... in the screen's most savage scenes of mortal combat!

If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: good. This poster has been linenbacked, but it was not very well done, either because the restorer did not do a very good job, or because the years since it has been linenbacked have not been kind to the poster. Overall, the poster was in good condition prior to linenbacking. Generally, it had paper loss at the crossfolds, creases, tears, and tiny paper loss on parts of some foldlines and around the edges of the poster. The poster was not that well backed, because you can see signs of the above general defects and the restoration of the defects (in some cases, as should be immediately evident in our image, the linenbacker did no restoration to some of the defects). I would think few collectors would want to display it as it is, without someone performing some additional restoration. Certainly, a talented restorer could perform additional restoration (either with or without re-backing the poster), but it might be fairly expensive to have this done, so bear that in mind before you place a bid.
